    1. This estimated number of Units includes Units issued or to be issued in
       connection with Initial Distributions under the Adelphia Plan of
       Reorganization.
    2. With respect to Series ESL, ACC-5, ACC-6B1, ACC-6D1, ACC-6EF1, and
       ACC-7A, one Unit has been reserved with respect to each holder of a
       Disputed Claim under the Adelphia Plan of Reorganization; therefore, it
       is possible that upon resolution of such Disputed Claims additional
       Units could be issued.  With respect to all other Series of CVV
       Interests, the number of reserved Units is the maximum number of
       additional Units that is reasonably expected to be issued if all
       Disputed Claims to which such Units relate were Allowed.
    3. The estimated number of Units for FrontierVision has been corrected
       since the press release issued by the Company on February 13, 2007.
       The correct number of Units for FrontierVision Series A is 62,567,076
       and for FrontierVision Series B is 24,032,924.  The aggregate number of
       Units for the class and the amount of Units issued per $1,000 of
       principal amount did not change.  The February 13, 2007 press release
       available on the restructuring website at http://www.adelphiarestructuring.com
       has been updated to reflect the corrected numbers.
