million shares of Class A Common Stock of Jones Intercable and approximately 2.9

subsidiary of Comcast.  The  approximately 2.9 million shares of Common Stock of
Jones Intercable represent approximately 57% of the outstanding shares of Common
Stock,  and the  Common  Stock  voting  as a class  elects  75% of the  Board of
Directors  of  Jones  Intercable.  As,  a  result,  Jones  Intercable  will be a
