investment or otherwise) to the applicable obligor of such
debt;
|
|
·
|

other obligations under cross-default
provisions;
|
|
·

and our parent companies’ ability to repay debt prior to or when it
becomes due and/or successfully access the capital or credit markets to
refinance that debt through new issuances, exchange offers or otherwise,
including restructuring our and our parent companies’ balance sheet and
leverage position, especially given recent volatility and disruption in
the capital and credit markets;
|
· | the impact of competition from other distributors, including incumbent telephone companies, direct broadcast satellite operators, wireless broadband providers, and digital subscriber line (“DSL”) providers; | |
· | difficulties in growing, further introducing, and operating our telephone services, while adequately meeting customer expectations for the reliability of voice services; | |
· | our ability to adequately meet demand for installations and customer service; |
|
·
|
our
ability to sustain and grow revenues and cash flows from operating
activities by offering video, high-speed Internet, telephone and other
services, and to maintain and grow our customer base, particularly in the
face of increasingly aggressive
competition;
|
|
·
|
our
ability to obtain programming at reasonable prices or to adequately raise
prices to offset the effects of higher programming
costs;
|
|
·
|
general
business conditions, economic uncertainty or downturn, including the
recent volatility and disruption in the capital and credit markets and the

"Customers"
include all persons our corporate billing records show as receiving
service (regardless of their payment status), except for complimentary
accounts (such as our employees). At September 30, 2008 and
2007, "customers" include approximately 42,100 and 33,800 persons whose
accounts were over 60 days past due in payment, approximately 7,700 and
5,700 persons whose accounts were over 90 days past due in payment, and
approximately 3,800 and 2,100 of which were over 120 days past due in
payment, respectively.
|
(b)
|
"Basic
video customers" include all residential customers who receive video cable
services.
|
(c)
|
Included
within "basic video customers" are those in commercial and multi-dwelling
structures, which are calculated on an equivalent bulk unit ("EBU")
basis. EBU is calculated for a system by dividing the bulk
price charged to accounts in an area by the most prevalent price charged
to non-bulk residential customers in that market for the comparable tier
of service. The EBU method of estimating basic video customers
is consistent with the methodology used in determining costs paid to
programmers and has been used
consistently.
|
(d)
|
"Digital
video customers" include all basic video customers that have one or more
digital set-top boxes or cable cards
deployed.
|
(e)
|
"Residential
high-speed Internet customers" represent those residential customers who
subscribe to our high-speed Internet
service.
|
(f)
|
“Telephone
customers" include all customers receiving telephone
service.

|
|
·
|
require
us to dedicate a significant portion of our cash flow from operating
activities to make payments on our and our parent companies’ debt,
reducing our funds available for working capital, capital expenditures,
and other general corporate
expenses;
|
|
·
|
limit
our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business,
the cable and telecommunications industries, and the economy at
large;
|
|
·
|
place
us at a disadvantage compared to our competitors that have proportionately
less debt;
|
|
·
|
make
us vulnerable to interest rate increases, because net of hedging
transactions approximately 17%, 26%, and 32%, of Charter Holdings’, CCH
II’s, and CCO Holdings’ borrowings, respectively, are, and will continue
to be, subject to variable rates of
interest;
|
|
·
|
expose
us to increased interest expense to the extent we refinance existing debt
with higher cost debt;
|
|
·
|
adversely
affect our relationship with customers and
suppliers;
|
|
·
|
limit
our and our parent companies’ ability to borrow additional funds in the
future, due to applicable financial and restrictive covenants in our and
our parent companies’ debt;
|
|
·
|
make
it more difficult for us and our parent companies to obtain financing
given the current volatility and disruption in the capital and credit
markets and the deterioration of general economic
conditions;
|
· | make it more difficult for us and our parent companies to satisfy our and their obligations to the holders of our and their notes and to our lenders under our credit facilities; and |
|
·
|
limit
future increases in the value, or cause a decline in the value of
Charter’s equity, which could limit Charter’s ability to raise additional
capital by issuing equity.
|
·
|
the
impact of competition from other distributors, including incumbent
telephone companies, direct broadcast satellite operators, wireless
broadband providers and DSL
providers;
|
·
|
difficulties
in growing, further introducing, and operating our telephone services,
while adequately meeting customer expectations for the reliability of
voice services;
|
·
|
our
ability to adequately meet demand for installations and customer
service;
|
·
|
our
ability to sustain and grow revenues and cash flows from operating
activities by offering video, high-speed Internet, telephone and other
services, and to maintain and grow our customer base, particularly in the
face of increasingly aggressive
competition;
|
·
|
our
ability to obtain programming at reasonable prices or to adequately raise
prices to offset the effects of higher programming
costs;
|
·
|
general
business conditions, economic uncertainty or downturn, including the
recent volatility and disruption in the capital and credit markets and the
significant downturn in the housing sector and overall economy;
and
|
·
|
the
effects of governmental regulation on our
business.
|
·
|
the
sum of its debts, including contingent liabilities, was greater than the
fair saleable value of all its
assets;
|
·
|
the
present fair saleable value of its assets was less than the amount that
would be required to pay its probable liability on its existing debts,
including contingent liabilities, as they become absolute and mature;
or
|
·
|
it
could not pay its debts as they became
due.
|
|
·
|
the
lenders under Charter Operating’s credit facilities whose interests are
secured by substantially all of our operating assets, and all holders of
other debt of our subsidiaries, will have the right to be paid in full
before us from any of our subsidiaries’ assets;
and
|
|
·
|
the
holders of preferred membership interests in our subsidiary, CC VIII,
would have a claim on a portion of its assets that may reduce the amounts
available for repayment to holders of our outstanding
notes.

materially affect, the registrants’ internal control over financial
reporting; and

reasonably likely to adversely affect the registrants’ ability to record,
process, summarize and report financial information;

Any
