Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.
On March 9, 2005, Adelphia Communications Corporation (the "Company"), the ultimate parent company of each of the registrants, entered into Amendment No. 3 of Amended and Restated Commitment Letter (the "Commitment Letter Amendment") and Amendment No. 4 of Amended and Restated Fee Letter (the "Fee Letter Amendment" and, together with the Commitment Letter Amendment, the "Exit Commitment Amendments") with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., J.P. Morgan Securities Inc., Credit Suisse First Boston, acting through its Cayman Islands Branch, Citicorp North America, Inc., Citigroup Global Markets Inc., Deutsche Bank AG Cayman Islands Branch and Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. (collectively, the "Exit Lenders"), relating to the Company's $8.8 billion exit financing commitment (the "Exit Financing Commitment"). The Exit Commitment Amendments will not become effective unless and until they are approved by the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (the "Bankruptcy Court"). On March 11, 2005, the Company and its affiliated debtors, including the registrants, filed a motion with the Bankruptcy Court seeking approval of the Exit Commitment Amendments. A hearing on such motion is currently scheduled for April 8, 2005.
Pursuant to the terms of the Commitment Letter Amendment, among other things, the commitment of the Exit Lenders in respect of the Exit Financing Commitment will be extended from June 30, 2005 until no later than December 31, 2005, unless the reorganization plan of the Company and its affiliated debtors, including the registrants, is confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court on or before December 31, 2005, in which case the Company may request that the expiration date in respect of the commitment of the Exit Lenders be extended for a period of up to 180 days.
Under the terms of the Exit Financing Commitment (prior to giving effect to the terms of the Exit Commitment Amendments), certain commitment fees accrue with respect to the $5.5 billion commitment of the Exit Lenders in respect of the senior secured credit facilities contemplated thereby (the "Bank Facilities") and the $3.3 billion commitment of the Exit Lenders in respect of the senior unsecured bridge facility contemplated thereby. Under the terms of the Exit Financing Commitment (prior to giving effect to the terms of the Exit Commitment Amendments), such commitment fees will not become payable by the Company until the earlier to occur of (i) the closing date of the exit financing facilities contemplated by the Exit Financing Commitment and (ii) the date that all of the commitments of the Exit Lenders under the Exit Financing Commitment (prior to giving effect to the terms of the Exit Commitment Amendments) are terminated or expire pursuant to the terms thereof. Under the terms of the Fee Letter Amendment, the Company has agreed to pay, on June 30, 2005, the date on which the commitment of the Exit Lenders under the Exit Financing Commitment (prior to giving effect to the terms of the Exit Commitment Amendments) is scheduled to expire, the accrued and unpaid commitment fees in respect of the Bank Facilities and the Bridge Facility (such accrued and unpaid commitment fees in respect of such facilities are estimated to be approximately $53.0 million in the aggregate as of June 30, 2005). From and after June 30, 2005, the commitment fees in respect of the Bank Facilities and the Bridge Facility will continue to accrue on the terms set forth in the Exit Financing Commitment (after giving effect to the terms of the Exit Commitment Amendments).
The foregoing summary of certain material terms of the Commitment Letter Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Commitment Letter Amendment, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
