State below in  reasonable  detail the reasons why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q,

         services,  to its parent company Editora Abril S.A. As a result of this
         change,  the Company has implemented new procedures which are presently
         being reviewed by its auditors,  Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu,  in order to
         finalize the financial statements as of and for the year ended December
         31, 2002 to be included  in the Annual  Report of Tevecap  S.A. on Form
         20-F. We expect to file our Annual Report no later than July 15, 2002.
