PUBLIC NOTICE Federal Communications Commission 445 12 th St., S.W. Washington, D.C. 20554 News Media Information 202 / 418-0500 Internet: http://www.fcc.gov TTY: 1-888-835-5322 DA 14-986 Released: July 10, 2014 COMMISSION SEEKS COMMENT ON APPLICATIONS OF COMCAST CORPORATION, TIME WARNER CABLE INC., CHARTER COMMUNICATIONS, INC., AND SPINCO TO ASSIGN AND TRANSFER CONTROL OF FCC LICENSES AND OTHER AUTHORIZATIONS MB Docket No. 14-57 Comments/Petitions Due: August 25, 2014 Responses to Comments/Oppositions to Petitions Due: September 23, 2014 Replies to Responses/Oppositions Due: October 8, 2014 On April 8, 2014, Comcast Corporation (“Comcast”) and Time Warner Cable Inc. (“TWC”) submitted joint applications to the Commission seeking consent to transfer control of various Commission licenses and other authorizations pursuant to Sections 214 and 310(d) of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended (“Act”). 1 The proposed Comcast-TWC transfers, if completed, would effectuate the sale of certain cable systems and assets of TWC and its affiliates and related entities to subsidiaries or affiliates of Comcast. Additionally, in connection with the proposed Comcast-TWC transaction, Time Warner Entertainment–Advance/Newhouse Partnership (“TWE-A/N”) and Comcast have submitted applications for the transfer to Comcast of TWE-A/N’s interest in licenses and other authorizations held by Bright House Networks, LLC (“Bright House”). 2 1 See 47 U.S.C. §§ 214, 310(d); Applications of Comcast Corp. and Time Warner Cable Inc. for Consent to Transfer Control of Licenses and Authorizations, Applications and Public Interest Statement (filed Apr. 8, 2014) (“Comcast- TWC Application”). 2 Id. at 173 n.468. According to the Comcast-TWC Application, TWC holds 66.67 percent of TWE-A/N, which in turn is the sole LLC member of Bright House. Id. Advance/Newhouse Partnership — an entity in which TWC holds no legal or economic interest — holds the remaining 33.33 percent of TWE-A/N. Id. According to the Comcast-TWC Application, TWC provides to Bright House certain services, such as programming and technology support, in exchange for an annual fee but does not share in its profits and losses. Id. By contrast, according to Comcast and TWC, Advance/Newhouse Partnership exercises exclusive day-to-day management responsibility for, and de facto control over, the operation of the Bright House systems. Id. 2Subsequent to the filing of the Comcast-TWC Application, on June 4, 2014, Comcast, Charter Communications, Inc. (“Charter”), and SpinCo 3 (collectively, the “Divestiture Applicants”) filed transfer applications pursuant to Sections 214 and 310(d) of the Act to effectuate a series of transactions between Comcast and Charter (collectively, the “Divestiture Transactions”). 4 The Divestiture Transactions consist of the following three transactions: (i) a sale to Charter of cable systems serving approximately 1.5 million former TWC video customers; (ii) an exchange between Comcast and Charter of cable systems serving approximately 1.5 million former TWC video customers, as well as seven cable networks affiliated with those systems, and approximately 1.6 million Charter video customers and three cable networks affiliated with those systems; and (iii) a spinoff of cable systems serving approximately 2.5 million legacy Comcast video customers into SpinCo, which will operate as a new, publicly traded cable company. 5 According to the parties, the Divestiture Transactions would result in a net reduction of approximately 3.9 million residential video customers for the combined Comcast and TWC. 6 In addition, on June 5, 2014, Comcast and TWC submitted a joint letter updating figures, maps, tables, and statements in the Comcast-TWC Application in light of the proposed Divestiture Transactions. 7 In the letter, the parties formally request that the Commission consider and process the applications for the proposed Divestiture Transactions contemporaneously with the Comcast-TWC Application in a single pleading 3 According to Divestiture Applicants, after the close of the Comcast-TWC transaction, Comcast intends to form SpinCo, transfer to it certain cable assets and liabilities, and then spin it off to Comcast shareholders, thereby establishing a new, publicly traded cable company.

Zachem, Senior Vice President, Regulatory and State Legislative Affairs, Comcast Corp. and Steven Teplitz, Senior Vice President, Government Relations, Time Warner Cable Inc., to Marlene H. Dortch, Secretary, FCC, MB Docket No. 14-57 (June 5, 2014) (“Comcast-TWC Supplement Letter”) at 2. 6 Id. at 2-3. According to Comcast and TWC, the proposed Divestiture Transactions, if completed, would achieve Comcast’s stated intention in the Comcast-TWC Application to reduce its post-transaction national share of managed residential video subscribers below 30 percent. See id. at 1; Comcast-TWC Application at 7. Comcast’s calculation of its post-transaction share of managed residential video subscribers does not include its acquisition of TWC’s attributable interest in cable systems managed by Bright House or any other attributable ownership interests where Comcast does not manage the systems. See Letter from Kathryn A. Zachem, Senior Vice President, Regulatory and State Legislative Affairs, Comcast Corp., Catherine Bohigian, Executive Vice President, Government Affairs, Charter Communications, Inc., and Steven Teplitz, Senior Vice President, Government Relations, Time Warner Cable Inc., to Marlene H. Dortch, Secretary, FCC, MB Docket No. 14-57 (June 24, 2014) (“June 24, 2014 Supplement Letter”) at 9-12. In addition, Charter currently serves approximately 4.2 million residential video customers; however, following the Divestiture Transactions, it will own, or provide services under contract to, cable systems serving approximately 8.3 million video customers. Comcast-to-Charter Sale/Exchange Public Interest Statement at 1-2; June 24, 2014 Supplement Letter at 3. 7 See Comcast-TWC Supplement Letter at 3-8. According to Comcast and TWC, the Divestiture transactions “do not alter any material aspect of the Comcast-TWC transaction or the applications related to that transaction.” Id. at 1. 3cycle. 8 On June 24, 2014, Comcast, Charter, and TWC submitted a letter to provide additional data and information about Comcast, Charter, and SpinCo, as well as Bright House, following the Comcast-TWC transaction and the Divestiture Transactions. 9 We seek comment from interested persons to assist the Commission in its independent review of all proposed transfers of licenses and other authorizations referred to in this Public Notice. 10 The details of the proposed transfers and the procedures on how to file petitions to deny and comments are set forth below. DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPOSED TRANSACTIONS According to the Comcast-TWC Application, Comcast has entered into an agreement with TWC whereby Comcast will acquire 100 percent of TWC’s equity in exchange for shares of Comcast Class A stock. 11 Comcast and TWC state that the proposed transaction is a straightforward acquisition of TWC, and that Comcast plans to retain all of TWC’s existing assets, subject to divestitures of cable systems totaling approximately 3.9 million video subscribers. 12 According to the Comcast-TWC Application, at the closing of the transaction, Tango Acquisition Sub, Inc. (“TAS”), a new direct wholly owned subsidiary of Comcast, will merge with TWC under Delaware law. 13 At that time, the separate corporate existence of TAS will cease and, thereafter, TWC will be a wholly owned subsidiary of Comcast. 14 8 Id. at 2. Comcast and TWC note that the closing of the Comcast-TWC transaction is a pre-condition to the Divestiture Transactions and therefore request that the Commission grant approvals for the Comcast-TWC transaction and the Divestiture Transactions at the same time. Id. at 2 n.4. They also state that, should the closing of the Divestiture Transactions be delayed, or should it fail to occur, Comcast may need the ability to own all of the TWC systems for a period of 12 to 18 months following the closing of the Comcast-TWC transaction in order to complete divestiture in the least disruptive manner. Id. 9 See June 24, 2014 Supplement Letter. 10 A list of the licenses and authorizations subject to the filed applications is included in the Attachment to this Public Notice. 11 Comcast-TWC Application at 7. 12 Id.; Comcast-TWC Supplement Letter at 3. Comcast is currently the largest multichannel video programming distributor (“MVPD”) in the United States and owns and operates cable systems serving approximately 22.6 million video customers. See Comcast-TWC Application at 8; June 24, 2014 Supplement Letter at 2. TWC is the fourth- largest MVPD in the United States, serving approximately 11.4 million video customers. Comcast-TWC Application at 14. Following all of the proposed transactions, including divestitures, Comcast would serve approximately 29.8 million managed video subscribers (or less than 30 percent of MVPD subscribers nationwide). June 24, 2014 Supplement Letter at 2. Moreover, following the Divestiture Transactions, Comcast would operate in 16 of the top 20 Designated Market Areas, the same number as it does today. Comcast-TWC Supplement Letter at 3. In addition to its 29.8 million managed video subscribers post-transaction, as noted above, Comcast will acquire TWC’s attributable interest in cable systems managed by Bright House. According to the applicants, following the proposed transactions, Bright House will serve approximately 2.1 million video subscribers. June 24, 2014 Supplement Letter at 12. 13 Comcast-TWC Application at 7. 14 Id. 4Contemporaneously with the merger, each TWC share will be converted into the right for TWC stockholders to receive 2.875 shares of Comcast Class A stock. 15 In addition, TWE-A/N and Comcast have submitted applications in connection with the proposed Comcast-TWC transaction to transfer control from TWC to Comcast of certain licenses and other authorizations held by Bright House. According to Comcast and TWC, the Comcast-TWC transaction will technically effect a transfer of TWC’s indirect legal interest in Bright House to Comcast. 16 Comcast states that it has yet to determine the exact parameters of its post-transaction relationship with Bright House; 17 however, according to Comcast and TWC, Advance/Newhouse Partnership, and not TWC, currently has, and will retain, all day-to-day managerial control over, and all economic interest in, the licenses and other authorizations held by Bright House. 18 As noted above, Comcast, Charter, and SpinCo have submitted the Divestiture Transactions, pursuant to which Comcast will sell, exchange, and spin off cable systems resulting in a net reduction of approximately 3.9 million residential video customers and the establishment of SpinCo as a new, publicly traded cable company. 19 According to the SpinCo Public Interest Statement, SpinCo will operate as an independent cable company serving customers in eleven states. 20 As part of the SpinCo transaction, Charter will form a holding company (“New Charter”) and, at the closing of the transaction, a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of New Charter (“Merger Sub 2”) will merge with SpinCo and then cease to exist as a separate corporate entity. 21 As a result, Charter will acquire an approximate 33 percent interest in SpinCo, which it will obtain from Comcast shareholders (including former TWC shareholders) in exchange for Charter stock representing an approximate 13 percent stake in Charter (as of the time the SpinCo transaction was announced). 22 Comcast shareholders (including former TWC shareholders) will hold the remaining 67 percent interest in SpinCo. 23 According to the SpinCo Public Interest Statement, SpinCo will have a nine-person board of directors, with six independent directors and three directors designated by Charter. 24 Comcast states that it will have no ownership interest in, or management or control of, SpinCo after the spinoff is complete. 25 In addition, for the first eight years thereafter, Comcast 15 Id. 16 See supra note 2 (discussing the nature of TWC’s ownership interest in Bright House). 17 June 24, 2014 Supplement Letter at 11. 18 Comcast-TWC Application at 173 n.468. Comcast and TWC have therefore sought pro forma treatment for the Bright House transfer applications. 19 Comcast-to-Charter Sale/Exchange Public Interest Statement at 5. At least initially, SpinCo will be named “Midwest Cable LLC.” SpinCo Public Interest Statement at 1. 20 Id. at 5. 21 Id. at 6. 22 Id. at 3. 23 Id. at 3. 24 Id. at 3-4. 25 SpinCo Public Interest Statement at 1. 5will be prohibited from owning more than one percent of SpinCo’s shares. 26 The SpinCo Public Interest Statement states that Charter will be prohibited from increasing its stake in SpinCo for the first two years post-closing and, absent approval from SpinCo’s non-Charter directors or its non-Charter shareholders, Charter will be prohibited from owning more than 49 percent of the company for the first four years. 27 Finally, Charter will make an array of services available to SpinCo pursuant to a three-year services agreement (with automatic one-year renewals unless terminated by either party), in exchange for which, SpinCo will make quarterly payments to Charter equal to 4.25 percent of SpinCo’s quarterly gross revenues, plus the cost of the services rendered. 28 In their application, Comcast and TWC assert that the proposed Comcast-TWC transaction will generate substantial public interest benefits that would not occur as broadly or as rapidly absent the transaction. 29 In particular, Comcast and TWC assert that efficiencies and synergies flowing from the transaction will allow the combined company to “forge a faster path to all-digital systems, higher broadband speeds, more advanced video and voice services, a more secure network, better system reliability, and other benefits to consumers, businesses, and the public interest generally.” 30 According to Comcast and TWC, following completion of the several proposed transactions, Comcast will expand its video subscriber base by approximately seven million customers and will reach additional markets in which it previously had limited or no presence (e.g., New York City, Los Angeles, and Dallas-Fort Worth). 31 Comcast and TWC assert that TWC customers, in particular, will benefit from the substantial upgrades that Comcast intends to make to the TWC network. 32 In addition, Comcast commits to extending its low-income broadband adoption program — known as “Internet Essentials” — throughout the territories that it is acquiring. 33 Moreover, Comcast also commits to extending to those territories many of the commitments and conditions that it is bound by under the Comcast-NBCU Order, 34 26 Id. 27 Id. at 4. 28 Id. at 3-4. In conjunction with the services agreement between SpinCo and Charter, there will be a temporary transition services agreement between SpinCo and Comcast to ensure that customers moving from Comcast to SpinCo experience minimal service disruption. Id. at 3. 29 Comcast-TWC Application at 23-28. 30 Id. at 28. 31 Id. at 25-26; Comcast-TWC Supplement Letter at 3. Comcast and TWC also note that the acquisition of TWC systems will provide Comcast with access to several markets that are clustered near its existing markets (e.g., in Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, and Virginia). Comcast-TWC Application at 26. 32 Specifically, Comcast commits to “adding substantial incremental investment to what TWC had planned for broadband upgrades and enhancements over the next three years.” Id. at 28. 33 Id. at 59-66; Comcast-TWC Supplement Letter at 6. 34 See Applications of Comcast Corporation, General Electric Company and NBC Universal, Inc. for Consent to Assign Licenses and Transfer Control of Licensees, Memorandum Opinion and Order, 26 FCC Rcd 4238 (2011) (“Comcast-NBCU Order”). 6including, among others, its commitment to comply with the Commission’s Open Internet rules and its commitment to offer broadband service on a standalone basis. 35 Divestiture Applicants assert that the Divestiture Transactions will not reduce — and in some cases will enhance — the public interest benefits detailed in the Comcast-TWC Application. 36 In particular, they assert that the Divestiture Transactions will allow them to better rationalize their geographic footprints by filling in gaps within the existing Comcast and Charter footprints. 37 Divestiture Applicants contend that such clustering of systems will, among other things, facilitate investment in and deployment of advanced services, 38 produce opportunities for operational and marketing efficiencies, 39 improve their ability to provide customer service, 40 and strengthen their ability to compete with incumbent local exchange carriers and other competitors that operate on a regional or super-regional scale. 41 Moreover, they contend that Charter’s acquisition of cable systems will provide it with increased scale that is likely to enhance many of these benefits for Charter customers. 42 In addition, Divestiture Applicants assert that Charter customers being acquired by Comcast will enjoy many of the same benefits as TWC customers being acquired in the Comcast-TWC transaction, including, among others, the 35 Comcast-TWC Application at 106-20; Comcast-TWC Supplement Letter at 6. Comcast and TWC state that Comcast is now the only company legally bound by the no-blocking and non-discrimination rules in the Open Internet Order, following the recent court decision vacating those rules, and that the transaction therefore will spread the reach of those protections to millions of additional customers. Id. at 59; see also Preserving the Open Internet, Report and Order, 25 FCC Rcd 17905 (2010) (“Open Internet Order”), aff'd in part, vacated and remanded in part sub nom. Verizon v. FCC, 740 F.3d 623 (D.C. Cir. 2014). 36 In their supplemental declaration filed with the Charter-to-Comcast Exchange Public Interest Statement, Drs. Gregory L. Rosston and Michael D. Topper conclude that the public interest benefits related to scale that were identified in the Comcast-TWC Application remain valid because the divestitures are only “slightly larger” than the level (3 million) they previously assumed and calculated into their original analysis. See Rosston and Topper, An Economic Analysis of the Proposed Comcast Divestiture Transactions with Charter (June 4, 2014) at 2, ¶ 5. 37 Charter-to-Comcast Exchange Public Interest Statement at 5-10; Comcast-to-Charter Sale/Exchange Public Interest Statement at 7-10; SpinCo Public Interest Statement at 10-14. Specifically, Comcast will fill gaps in its footprint in portions of the Northeast (New England and New York), the Southeast (Virginia, Tennessee, North Carolina, and Georgia), Texas, and the West Coast (California, Oregon, and Washington). Charter-to-Comcast Exchange Public Interest Statement at 5. By contrast, post-transaction Charter and SpinCo will each have a sizeable presence in parts of the Midwest and the Southeast not served by Comcast.

Charter states that it “anticipates investing substantially in the TWC infrastructure” to bring advanced services to the acquired TWC systems. Id. at 12-14. 7extension of Comcast’s conditions and commitments from the NBCUniversal transaction. 43 Divestiture Applicants further assert that SpinCo — with nearly 2.5 million video subscribers — will have sufficient scale post-transaction to compete as a standalone company, and through its services agreement with Charter, it will provide its customers with access to Charter’s industry-leading broadband products and services. 44 In addition to the affirmative public interest benefits set forth in their application, Comcast and TWC assert that the proposed Comcast-TWC transaction will not result in any public interest harms. Comcast and TWC contend that, because their two companies serve almost entirely distinct geographic areas, the transaction will reduce neither competition nor consumer choice among broadband, video, or voice providers. 45 In addition, Comcast and TWC contend that Comcast’s increased scale as a buyer of video programming will not cause competitive harm because, following the Divestiture Transactions, Comcast will manage systems serving fewer than 30 percent of the total MVPD subscribers in the United States. 46 Comcast and TWC further argue that, given consumer demand for edge provider offerings, as well as the competitive nature of the broadband market, the combined company will have neither the incentive nor the ability to restrict access to its high-speed Internet customers. 47 Finally, Comcast and TWC assert that the transaction complies fully with the Communications Act and all Commission rules. 48 Divestiture Applicants similarly contend that the Divestiture Transactions will not create any public interest harms. In particular, they assert that Comcast, TWC, and Charter each serve distinct geographic markets today, and therefore the Divestiture Transactions — like the Comcast-TWC transaction — will not reduce the number of competitive choices for consumers. 49 In addition, they assert that the Divestiture Transactions do not pose any vertical integration concerns as no national 43 Charter-to-Comcast Exchange Public Interest Statement at 10-12. 44 SpinCo Public Interest Statement at 14. 45 Comcast-TWC Application at 138. Comcast and TWC state that, after taking into account the Divestiture Transactions, there is an overlap of approximately 780 residential or small- or medium-sized business customers, and approximately 190 business customers, in the two companies’ service areas. Comcast-TWC Supplement Letter at 4-5. 46 Comcast-TWC Application at 143; Comcast-TWC Supplement Letter at 3. Comcast and TWC note that 30 percent had previously been identified by the Commission as the appropriate threshold for its cable ownership cap, but that the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia twice rejected a 30 percent cap, most recently in 2009. Comcast-TWC Application at 143-44 (citing Comcast Corp. v. FCC, 579 F.3d 1 (D.C. Cir. 2009); Time Warner Entm’t Co. v. FCC, 240 F.3d 1126 (D.C. Cir. 2001)). 47 Comcast-TWC Application at 156-64. 48 Id. at 171-73. 49 Charter-to-Comcast Exchange Public Interest Statement at 12-13; Comcast-to-Charter Sale/Exchange Public Interest Statement at 18; SpinCo Public Interest Statement at 20. Divestiture Applicants note that approximately 2,800 Comcast residential or small- or medium-sized business customers are located in Charter’s service areas (and the number of Charter customers in Comcast service areas is similar), as well as approximately 1,500 TWC residential or small- or medium-sized business customers located in Charter’s service areas (and 790 Charter customers in TWC service areas). Charter-to-Comcast Exchange Public Interest Statement at 13 n.31. 8programming assets will be changing hands. 50 Moreover, they argue that Comcast’s enhanced regional presence following its acquisition of Charter systems will not increase its incentive or ability to withhold programming, or to demand higher prices, because Comcast will see only modest increases in subscriber share within the footprints of its affiliated O&O broadcast stations and its English-language RSNs. 51 The Divestiture Applicants also state that the Divestiture Transactions will not result in the violation of any provision of the Communications Act or the Commission’s rules. 52 In addition, Comcast notes that Charter has received a waiver of the Commission’s navigation device “integration ban,” which expires on April 18, 2015, with respect to the navigation devices currently deployed on the Charter cable systems that Comcast is acquiring. 53 Comcast requests that the Commission grant it the benefit of the waiver through April 18, 2016 to give Comcast sufficient time to integrate the systems into its network and to migrate them to a new security solution. 54 Comcast explains that its waiver request is limited to the integrated set-top boxes that Charter will have already deployed at the time of the transaction and Comcast commits that it “will not deploy any new integrated set-top boxes in the acquired systems or in any other Comcast system after the transaction is completed.” 55 ASSIGNMENT AND TRANSFER OF CONTROL APPLICATIONS The file numbers and call signs of the Comcast, TWC, and Charter facilities that are the subject of the assignment and transfer of control applications are listed in the Attachment to this Public Notice. 56 Interested parties should refer to the assignment and transfer of control applications for a listing of the licenses. Parties should be aware that additional applications may have to be filed to identify any additional licenses and other authorizations in the services noted. Comcast and TWC have requested that the 50 Id. at 13; Comcast-to-Charter Sale/Exchange Public Interest Statement at 19-20; SpinCo Public Interest Statement at 21. Divestiture Applicants note that a total of twelve local or regional programming networks — including four regional sports networks (“RSNs”) — will be changing hands but argue that the potential loss of subscriber revenue, along with the Commission’s program access rules, should adequately address any theoretical concerns that they would withhold such programming. Id. 51 Charter-to-Comcast Exchange Public Interest Statement at 14-15. In addition, Divestiture Applicants assert that the modest share of Charter subscribers that Comcast will acquire in certain large DMAs (e.g., New York, Los Angeles, and Dallas-Fort Worth) will not significantly increase Comcast’s purchasing power.

Zachem, Senior Vice President, Regulatory and State Legislative Affairs, Comcast, to Marlene H. Dortch, Secretary, FCC, MB Docket No. 14-57 (July 2, 2014), at 1.
