*Pages 1--13 from 46128.xls* C. Parent Company 12. Name of ultimate parent entity B. System For Question 4, if you cannot identify the highest, then identify a Zip Code with a significant portion of subscribers. In defining cable system, for this survey, use the smallest physical system for which you maintain subscriber product account information. Although Effective Competition is defined at the community level, this survey uses the cable system area as a point of reference for many questions. This is because we have found that cable operators responding to this survey are more likely to maintain, or are better able to estimate, information at the system level. Questions 5 and 6 pertain to "Effective Competition" status. Local governments have authority to regulate the price of basic service (but not expanded basic service) unless the FCC grants an "Effective Competition" petition for the franchise area. If the FCC has granted Effective Competition status, the answer to question 5 is "yes" and the answer to question 6 is "no". If the FCC has not granted Effective Competition status, the answer to question 5 is "no" (even if you have competition in the community) and the answer to question 6 depends on whether the local government exercises its authority to regulate basic service charges. 6.
