Item 2. Disposition of Assets
On June 30, 1998, Cable TV Fund 12-BCD Venture (the "Venture"), a venture
comprised of Cable TV Fund 12-C, Ltd. (the "Partnership"), Cable TV Fund 12-B,
Ltd. ("Fund 12-B") and Cable TV Fund 12-D, Ltd. ("Fund 12-D"), Colorado limited
partnerships, sold the cable television system serving areas in and around
Albuquerque, New Mexico (the "Albuquerque System") to Jones Communications of
New Mexico, Inc., an indirect subsidiary of Jones Intercable, Inc., the general
partner of the Partnership, Fund 12-B and Fund 12-D (the "General Partner") for
a sales price of $222,963,267, subject to customary closing adjustments. The
sales price represents the average of three separate independent appraisals of
the fair market value of the Albuquerque System. The sale was approved by the
holders of a majority of the limited partnership interests of the Partnership,
Fund 12-B and Fund 12-D.
From the proceeds of the Albuquerque System's sale, the Venture will repay
its outstanding Senior Notes balance of $41,544,890 plus accrued interest in the
amount of $897,370, plus a make whole premium of $1,332,823 and, pursuant to an
amendment to the Venture's credit facility, the Venture will distribute in July
1998 $125,000,000 to the Partnership, Fund 12-B and Fund 12-D, in proportion to
their ownership interests in the Venture. The remaining proceeds will be used to
repay a portion of the outstanding balance and accrued interest on the Venture's
credit facility. The Partnership will receive $19,097,217, or 15 percent of the
$125,000,000 distribution, which the Partnership will distribute on July 31,
1998 to its partners of record as of June 30, 1998. The limited partners, as a
group, will receive $18,175,163, and the General Partner will receive $922,054.
Such distribution represents $382 for each $500 limited partnership interest, or
$764 for each $1,000 invested in the Partnership.
The Partnership's only remaining asset is its interest in the Venture, and
the Venture's only remaining asset, following the Venture's sale of the
Albuquerque System, is the cable television system serving areas in and around
Palmdale, California (the "Palmdale System"). The Venture has entered into a
purchase and sale agreement to sell the Palmdale System to the General Partner.
Upon the sale of the Palmdale System, which is expected to occur in the fourth
quarter of 1998, the Venture and the Partnership will be liquidated and
dissolved.
Taking into account the anticipated distributions from the sale of the
Albuquerque System and the proposed sale of the Palmdale System, together with
all prior distributions, the General Partner expects that the Partnership's
limited partners will have received a total return of $775 for each $500 limited
partnership interest, or $1,550 for each $1,000 invested in the Partnership, at
the time the Partnership is liquidated and dissolved.
