Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements we make in this release are set forth in reports or documents that we file from time to time with the SEC, and include, but are not limited to:

        operating activities by offering video, high-speed Internet,

        competition from other service providers;

    --  our ability to comply with all covenants in our indentures and
        credit facilities, any violation of which would result in a
        violation of the applicable facility or indenture and could

        provisions;

    --  our ability to repay or refinance debt as it becomes due;

    --  our ability to obtain programming at reasonable prices or to
