NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Organization and Basis of Presentation
We were formed in September 1999 to serve as the holding company and a financing
vehicle for Insight Communications Company, Inc.'s ("Insight Inc.") cable
television system joint venture with AT&T Broadband, LLC ("AT&T Broadband"). We
are owned 50% by Insight Communications Company, L.P. ("Insight LP"), which is
wholly-owned by Insight Inc., and 50% by AT&T Broadband, through its indirect
subsidiary TCI of Indiana Holdings, LLC ("TCI").
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of our
subsidiaries that own and operate cable television systems in Illinois, Indiana,
Kentucky, Ohio and Georgia.
2. Responsibility for Interim Financial Statements
Our accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and
Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the
information and footnote disclosures required by accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States for complete financial statements.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments
considered necessary for a fair statement of the consolidated results of
operations and financial position for the interim periods presented. All such
adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. These unaudited interim
consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited
consolidated financial statements and notes to consolidated financial statements
contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K as amended for the year ended
December 31, 2000.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States requires us to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The results
of operations for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2001 are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending
December 31, 2001 or any other interim period.
Certain 2000 amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 2001 presentation.
3. Cable System Transactions
On January 5, 2001, we completed a series of transactions with Insight LP and
certain subsidiaries of AT&T Corp. (the "AT&T cable subsidiaries") for the
acquisition of additional cable television systems, primarily located in the
state of Illinois, valued at approximately $2.2 billion (the "AT&T
transactions"), inclusive of systems valued at approximately $775.8 million,
contributed by Insight LP. The AT&T transactions were financed through a credit
facility established on January 5, 2001, the Midwest Holdings Credit Facility
(Note 6). As a result of the AT&T transactions, we acquired all of

3. Cable System Transactions (continued)
Insight LP's wholly-owned systems serving approximately 280,000 customers,
including systems which Insight LP purchased from the AT&T cable subsidiaries.
At the same time, we acquired from the AT&T cable subsidiaries systems serving
approximately 250,000 customers. The purchase price was preliminarily allocated
to the cable television assets acquired in relation to their estimated fair
values as increases to franchise rights. The purchase price allocation will be
finalized upon completion and receipt of appraisal reports.
Both Insight LP and the AT&T cable subsidiaries contributed their respective
systems to us subject to an amount of indebtedness such that we remain equally
owned by Insight LP and AT&T Broadband. Insight LP continues to serve as our
general partner and manages and operates our systems. As a result of the AT&T
transactions, we currently own and operate cable television systems in Indiana,
Kentucky, Illinois, Ohio and Georgia which passed approximately 2.2 million
homes and served approximately 1.3 million customers as of June 30, 2001.
As a result of the AT&T transactions, the financial results of Insight
Communications of Central Ohio LLC ("Insight Ohio"), previously wholly-owned by
Insight LP, are consolidated into our financial statements effective January 1,
2001. For financing purposes, Insight Ohio is an unrestricted subsidiary under
our indentures and is prohibited by the terms of its indebtedness from making
distributions to us.
On January 11, 2001, we acquired Cable One, Inc.'s, Greenwood, Indiana cable
television system serving approximately 14,800 customers for $62.0 million. The
purchase price was allocated to the cable television assets acquired in relation
to their fair values as increases in property and equipment and franchise
rights.

6. Debt (continued)
Insight Ohio Credit Facility
On January 5, 2001, in connection with the AT&T transactions, we acquired
Insight Ohio and the existing debt of Insight Ohio. Insight Ohio's credit
facility (the "Ohio Credit Facility") provides for revolving credit loans of up
to $25.0 million. The Ohio Credit Facility has a six-year maturity from the date
of borrowings, with reductions to the amount of the commitment commencing after
three years. Our obligations under the Ohio Credit Facility are secured by
substantially all the assets of Insight Ohio. The Ohio Credit Facility requires
Insight Ohio to meet certain financial and other debt covenants. Loans under the
Ohio Credit Facility bear interest, at our option, at the prime rate or at a
Eurodollar rate. In addition to the index rates, we pay an additional margin
percentage tied to Insight Ohio's ratio of total debt to adjusted annualized
operating cash flow.
Insight Midwest Holdings Credit Facility
On January 5, 2001, through a wholly-owned subsidiary ("Insight Midwest
Holdings") which holds all of our cable television systems other than the Ohio
System, we entered into a credit facility (the "Midwest Holdings Credit
Facility") to finance the AT&T transactions and to repay the outstanding
indebtedness under the Indiana and Kentucky Credit Facilities. The Midwest
Holdings Credit Facility expires in 2009 and provides for maximum borrowings of
$1.75 billion. Obligations under this credit facility are secured by a pledge of
the outstanding equity interests of Insight Midwest Holdings and its
subsidiaries.
The Midwest Holdings Credit Facility requires Insight Midwest Holdings to meet
certain financial and other debt covenants. Borrowings under this credit
facility bear interest at either an alternative base rate or Eurodollar rate,
plus an additional margin yield to Insight Midwest Holdings' leverage ratio, of
between 0.5% and 2.75%.
As a result of the repayment of the Indiana and Kentucky Credit Facilities on
January 5, 2001, we recorded an extraordinary charge of $10.3 million related to
the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs related to these credit
facilities.
Debt Facility Principal Payments
As of June 30, 2001, annual principal payments required on our debt are as

6. Debt (continued)
Interest Rate Swap and Collar Agreements
In June 1999, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS No. 133"). SFAS No. 133, as amended by SFAS No.
137, was adopted as of January 1, 2001. SFAS No. 133 establishes accounting and
reporting standards for derivative instruments embedded in other contracts and
for hedging activities. SFAS No. 133 requires us to recognize all derivatives on
the balance sheet at fair value.
On January 1, 2001, our derivative financial instruments, which were obtained to
manage our exposure to interest rate risk, included interest rate swap and
collar agreements, which qualified as cash flow hedges. On January 1, 2001, we
recorded as a component of other comprehensive loss a $1.9 million transition
adjustment loss representing the cumulative effect of adopting SFAS No. 133.
Changes in the fair value of such cash flow hedges are recognized in
stockholders' equity as a component of comprehensive income. For the three
months and six months ended June 30, 2001, the decrease in the fair value
was $2.8 million and $12.5 million.
7. Comprehensive Loss
Comprehensive loss totaled $63.3 million and $144.2 million for the three and
six months ended June 30, 2001. We record the effective portion of certain
derivatives' gains or losses as accumulated other comprehensive income or loss
in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. There were no components of
comprehensive income or loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000.
8. Related Party Transactions
We purchase substantially all of our pay television and other programming from
affiliates of AT&T Broadband. Charges for such programming were $45.0 million
and $88.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2001 and $25.1
million and $49.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000. As
of June 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000, $20.6 million and $9.8 million of
accrued programming costs were due to affiliates of AT&T Broadband. We believe
that the programming rates charged by the affiliates of AT&T Broadband are lower
than those available from independent parties.

9. Commitments and Contingencies
Litigation
Insight Kentucky and certain prior owners of the Kentucky Systems have been
named in class actions regarding the pass-through of state and local property
tax charges to customers by the prior owners of the Kentucky Systems. The
plaintiffs seek monetary damages and the enjoinment of the collection of such
taxes. We believe that the Kentucky Systems have substantial and meritorious
defenses to these claims.
We are subject to various legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of
business. While it is impossible to determine with certainty the ultimate
outcome of these matters, it is our opinion that the resolution of these matters
will not have a material adverse affect on our consolidated financial condition.
10. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statements of
Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 141, "Business Combinations" and No.
142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets", effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2001. Under the new rules, goodwill and intangible
assets deemed to have indefinite lives will no longer be amortized but will be
subject to annual impairment tests. Other intangible assets will continue to be
amortized over their useful lives. We are currently reviewing the impact of
these standards and will be performing a fair value analysis at a later date in
connection with the adoption of SFAS No. 142 on January 1, 2002.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Nature of Business
Insight Capital, Inc. (the "Company"), a Delaware corporation, was formed on
September 23, 1999, for the sole purpose of being a co-issuer of the senior
notes described in Note 4, which allows certain investors the ability to be
holders of the debt. The Company has no operations. The outstanding shares of
the Company are owned by Insight Midwest, L.P. ("Insight Midwest").
2. Restatement
The accompanying 2000 financial statements have been adjusted to reflect the
full amount of the Senior Notes, the proceeds of which were received by Insight
Midwest in 2000 and 1999 (Note 4), deferred financing costs and related interest
expense. The effect of the restatement was to increase total assets by $13.5
million, to increase total liabilities by $706.2 million and to decrease equity,
representing the net in-substance distribution related to the Senior Notes, by
$692.8 million as of December 31, 2000. Additionally, as a result of the
restatement, the Company recorded a net loss of $5.1 million and $10.1 million,
for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2000, respectively. Prior to
the restatement, no statements of operations were presented.
3. Responsibility for Interim Financial Statements
The accompanying unaudited financial statements of the Company have been
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to
Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all
of the information and footnote disclosures required by accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements.
In management's opinion, the financial statements reflect all adjustments
considered necessary for a fair statement of the financial position as of the
interim dates presented. These unaudited interim financial statements should be
read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes to financial
statements contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K as amended for
the year ended December 31, 2000.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States requires the Company to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

4. Notes Payable
On October 1, 1999, the Company and Insight Midwest completed a $200.0 million
offering of 9 3/4% senior notes due in October 2009. The proceeds of the
offering were used to repay certain debt of Insight Midwest. Interest payments
on these Senior Notes, which commenced on April 1, 2000, are payable
semi-annually on April 1 and October 1.
In April 2000, the Company and Insight Midwest completed an exchange offer
pursuant to which the 9 3/4% Senior Notes were exchanged for identical notes
registered under the Securities Act of 1933.
On November 6, 2000, the Company and Insight Midwest completed a $500.0 million
offering of 10 1/2% senior notes due in November 2010. Insight Midwest received
proceeds of $487.5 million, net of an underwriting fee of $5.0 million and a
bond discount of $7.5 million. The proceeds of the offering were used to repay
certain debt of Insight Midwest. Interest payments on these Senior Notes, which
commence on May 1, 2001, are payable semi-annually on May 1 and November 1.
The 9 3/4% Senior Notes and 10 1/2% Senior Notes are redeemable on or after
October 1, 2004 and November 1, 2005, respectively. In addition, Insight Midwest
can redeem up to 35% of the 9 3/4% Senior Notes and 10 1/2% Senior Notes prior
to October 1, 2002 and November 1, 2005, respectively, with the net proceeds
from certain sales of Insight Midwest's equity. Each holder of the Senior Notes
may require redemption of all or part of that holder's notes upon certain
changes of control. Although the Company is a co-issuer of the Senior Notes, it
has no substantial assets or any operations and will not have access to
additional sources of cash flow to make any payments on such debt. All future
funding on the Senior Notes, including principal and interest payments, are
dependent upon the operating results of Insight Midwest.
The Senior Notes are general unsecured obligations and are subordinate to all
Insight Midwest's liabilities, the amounts of which were $1.85 billion and
$770.5 million as of June 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000. The Senior Notes
contain certain financial and other debt covenants.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
Forward-Looking Statements
Some of the information in this quarterly report contains forward-looking
statements that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. You can identify
these statements by forward-looking words such as "may," "will," "expect,"
"anticipate," "believe," "estimate" and "continue" or similar words. You should
read statements that contain these words carefully because they:
. discuss our future expectations;
. contain projections of our future results of operations or of our financial
condition; or
. state other "forward-looking" information.
We believe it is important to communicate our expectations to our investors.
However, there may be events in the future that we are not able to accurately
predict or over which we have no control. The risk factors listed in our Annual
Report on Form 10-K as amended for the year ended December 31, 2000, as well as
any cautionary language in this quarterly report, provide examples of risks,
uncertainties and events that may cause our actual results to differ materially
from the expectations we describe in our forward-looking statements. Examples of
these risks include our history and expectation of future net losses, our
substantial debt, increasing programming costs and competition. You should be
aware that the occurrence of the events described in these risk factors and
elsewhere in this quarterly report could have a material adverse effect on our
business, operating results and financial condition.
Overview
Consistent with our strategy of pursuing value-enhancing transactions that fit
our geographic and clustering strategy, on January 5, 2001, we completed a
series of transactions with certain cable subsidiaries of AT&T Corp. that
increased by approximately 530,000 the number of customers we serve. We refer in
this report to all of the preceding transactions, including related bank
financing, as the "AT&T transactions." Specifically, we acquired:
. all of Insight LP's systems not already owned by us as well as systems
which Insight LP acquired from the AT&T cable subsidiaries (comprising in
total approximately 280,000 customers); and
. systems from the AT&T cable subsidiaries located in Illinois serving
approximately 250,000 customers.
We acquired the systems from Insight LP and the AT&T cable subsidiaries subject
to indebtedness in the amount of $685.0 million. We remain equally owned by
Insight LP and AT&T Broadband. Insight LP continues to serve as our general
partner and manage and operate our systems.
Results of Operations
Substantially all of our revenues were earned from customer fees for cable
television programming services including premium and pay-per-view services and
ancillary services, such as rental of converters and remote control devices,
installations and from selling advertising. In addition, we earn revenues from
commissions for products sold through home shopping networks.
16
We have had a history of net losses and expect to continue to report net losses
for the foreseeable future. The principal reasons for our prior and anticipated
net losses include depreciation and amortization expenses associated with our
acquisitions and capital expenditures related to construction and upgrading of
our systems, and interest costs on borrowed money. We cannot predict what
impact, if any, continued losses will have on our ability to finance our
operations in the future.
The following table is derived for the periods presented from our consolidated
financial statements that are included in this report and sets forth certain
statement of operations data for our consolidated operations:

Net cash provided by financing activities 88,000 49,000 134,733 49,000
EBITDA represents earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and
amortization. Our management believes that EBITDA is commonly used in the cable
television industry to analyze and compare cable television companies on the
basis of operating performance, leverage and liquidity. However, EBITDA is not
intended to be a performance measure that should be regarded as an alternative
to, or more meaningful than, either operating income or net income as an
indicator of operating performance or cash flows as a measure of liquidity, as
determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. EBITDA,
as computed by management, is not necessarily comparable to similarly titled
amounts of other companies. Refer to our financial statements, including our
statements of cash flows, which appear elsewhere in this quarterly report.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2001 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2000
Revenue increased $80.2 million or 84.6% to $174.9 million for the three months
ended June 30, 2001 compared to $94.7 million for the three months ended June
30, 2000. The increase in revenue was primarily the result of the cable
television systems contributed in the AT&T transactions, including the Ohio
System. The incremental revenue generated by the cable television systems
contributed approximated $71.4 million, which represents 89.1% of the increase
in consolidated revenue. Excluding the systems acquired in the AT&T
transactions, revenue increased 9.3% largely due to the sale of new services.
Revenue for digital and high-speed data in the existing systems increased by
$6.2 million, a combined 130.4% growth rate. Revenue by service offering were as
follows for the three months ended June 30 (in thousands):

On a pro forma basis including the systems acquired in the AT&T transactions,
RGUs (Revenue Generating Units) were approximately 1,544,500 as of June 30, 2001
compared to approximately 1,411,300 as of June 30, 2000. This represents an
annualized growth rate of 9.4%. RGUs represent the sum of basic and digital
video, high-speed data and telephone customers.
Average monthly revenue per basic customer was $45.64 for the three months ended
June 30, 2001 compared to $42.63 for the three months ended June 30, 2000
primarily reflecting the continued successful rollout of new product offerings
in the Indiana, Kentucky and Ohio markets. Average monthly revenue per basic
customer for high-speed data and interactive digital video increased to $5.23
for the three months ended June 30, 2001 from $2.14 for the three months ended
June 30, 2000. Excluding the systems acquired in the AT&T transactions, the
number of high-speed data service customers increased to approximately 37,400 as
of June 30, 2001 from approximately 15,500 as of June 30, 2000, while digital
customers increased to approximately 120,500 as of June 30, 2001 from
approximately 44,800 as of June 30, 2000.
Programming and other operating costs increased $24.7 million or 73.3% to $58.5
million for the three months ended June 30, 2001 from $33.8 million for the
three months ended June 30, 2000. The increase in programming and other
operating costs was primarily the result of the cable television systems
contributed in the AT&T transactions. The incremental expense generated by the
contribution of these systems approximated $24.1 million, which represents 97.3%
of the increase in programming and other operating costs. Excluding these
systems, programming and other operating costs increased by
18
approximately $600,000 accounting for 2.7% of the increase, primarily as a
result of increased programming rates and additional programming carried by our
existing systems.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $21.1 million or 148.3%
to $35.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001 from $14.2 million for
the three months ended June 30, 2000. The increase in selling, general and
administrative expenses was primarily the result of the acquisition of the cable
television systems contributed in the AT&T transactions. The incremental
selling, general and administrative expenses generated by the acquisition of the
Illinois systems approximated $15.0 million, which represents 70.9% of the
increase. Excluding these systems, these costs increased by approximately $6.1
million accounting for 29.1% of the increase, primarily reflecting increased
marketing activity associated with new product introductions.
Management fees are directly related to revenue as these fees are calculated as
approximately 3.0% of gross revenues.
Depreciation and amortization expense increased $41.2 million or 85.8% to $89.3
million for the three months ended June 30, 2001 from $48.1 million for the
three months ended June 30, 2000. The increase in depreciation and amortization
expense was primarily the result of the cable television systems contributed in
the AT&T transactions. The incremental depreciation and amortization expense
generated by these systems approximated $35.8 million, which represents 86.9% of
the increase. Excluding these systems, depreciation and amortization increased
by approximately $5.4 million accounting for 13.1% of the increase, primarily
due to capital expenditures made to rebuild the existing cable equipment during
previous quarters.
EBITDA increased 71.6% to $75.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001
from $44.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2000 primarily as a
result of a full quarter of results generated by the systems contributed in the
AT&T transactions.
Interest expense increased $19.7 million or 72.5% to $46.9 million for the three
months ended June 30, 2001 from $27.2 million for the three months ended June
30, 2000. The increase in interest expense was primarily the result of higher
outstanding debt required by the acquisition of the cable television systems
acquired in the AT&T transactions and funding of capital expenditures during the
past year.
For the three months ended June 30, 2001, the net loss was $60.5 million
primarily for the reasons set forth above.

ended June 30, 2001 from $187.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2000.
The increase in revenue was primarily the result of the cable television systems
contributed in the AT&T transactions, including the Ohio Systems. The
incremental revenue generated by the cable television systems contributed
approximated $140.5 million, which represents 90.2% of the increase in
consolidated revenue. Excluding the systems acquired in the AT&T transactions,
revenue increased 8.2% largely due to the sale of new services. Revenue for
digital and high-speed data in the existing systems increased by $10.4 million,

million for the six months ended June 30, 2001 from $94.2 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2000. The increase in depreciation and amortization
expense was primarily the result of the cable television systems contributed in

generated by these systems approximated $68.0 million, which represents 84.1% of
the increase. Excluding these systems, depreciation and amortization increased
by approximately $12.9 million accounting for 15.9% of the increase, primarily
due to capital expenditures made to rebuild the existing cable equipment during
previous quarters.
EBITDA increased 64.1% to $139.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001
from $84.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2000 primarily as a result
of the first six months of results generated by the systems contributed in the
AT&T transactions offset by a $10.3 million extraordinary loss recorded during
the six months ended June 30, 2001 due to early extinguishments of debt.
Interest expense increased $41.5 million or 78.1% to $94.6 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2001 from $53.1 million for the six months ended June 30,
2000. The increase in interest expense was primarily the result of higher
outstanding debt required by the acquisition of the cable television systems
acquired in the AT&T transactions and funding of capital expenditures during the
past year.
For the six months ended June 30, 2001, the net loss was $129.8 million
primarily for the reasons set forth above.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our business requires cash for operations, debt service, capital expenditures
and acquisitions. The cable television business has substantial on-going capital
requirements for the construction, expansion and maintenance of its broadband
networks. Expenditures have primarily been used to upgrade our existing cable
network, and in the future will be used for network extensions, new services,
converters and network upgrades. Historically, we have been able to meet our
cash requirements with cash flow from operations, borrowings under our credit
facilities, issuances of private equity and accessing other public sources.
For the six months ended June 30, 2001 and June 30, 2000, we spent $145.5
million and $86.5 million in capital expenditures largely to support our plant
rebuild, digital converter purchases and to a lesser extent network extensions.
We will continue to incur capital expenditures particularly for success-based
deployment of new services, including telephony and for the upgrade of the
Illinois cable television
21
systems, which involve the use of fiber optics and other capital projects
associated with implementing our clustering strategy.
On January 5, 2001, in connection with the AT&T transactions, Insight Midwest
Holdings entered into the $1.75 billion Midwest Holdings Credit Facility from
which it borrowed $663.0 million to repay the Indiana and Kentucky credit
facilities and $685.0 million to finance the AT&T transactions.
On January 5, 2001, we acquired all of the common equity interests of Insight
Ohio as part of the AT&T transactions. Insight Ohio is an unrestricted
subsidiary under the indentures governing our notes, and is prohibited by the
terms of its indebtedness from making distributions to us.
Cash provided by operations for the six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000 was
$78.3 million and $21.0 million. The increase was primarily attributable to the
AT&T Illinois Systems, the timing of payments against accounts payable and
accrued expense balances and an increase in receipts of launch funds from
programmers partially offset by an increase in accounts receivable balances.
Cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2001 and
2000 was $207.4 million and $87.8 million. The increase was primarily
attributable to capital expenditures and the purchase of cable television
systems, net of cash acquired.
Cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2001 and
2000 was $134.7 million and $49.0 million. The increase was primarily
attributable to net borrowings from credit facilities partially offset by
repayment of debt associated with the purchase of cable television systems.
As of June 30, 2001, we had aggregate consolidated indebtedness of $2.18
billion, including $1.49 billion outstanding under senior bank credit
facilities. The senior bank credit facilities consisted of:
. $1.75 billion Midwest Holdings Credit Facility maturing in 2009, which
will be utilized to support Insight Midwest's operations and build-
out, of which $1.47 billion was borrowed. The remaining availability
of $283.0 million will be used to support the aforementioned capital
expenditures; and
. $25.0 million Insight Ohio Credit Facility maturing in 2004, which was
fully-borrowed.
The weighted average interest rate for amounts outstanding under our senior
credit facilities as of June 30, 2001 was 6.4%. The facilities contain covenants
restricting, among other things, our ability to make capital expenditures,
acquire or dispose of assets, make investments and engage in transactions with
related parties. The facilities also require compliance with certain financial
ratios and contain customary events of default.
We have a substantial amount of debt. We believe that the Midwest Holdings
credit facility and our cash flow from operations are sufficient to support our
current operating plan. We intend to draw upon the $283.0 million of unused
availability under the Midwest Holdings credit facility as discussed above to
fund any shortfall resulting from the inability of our cash from operations to
fund our capital expenditures, meet our debt service requirements or otherwise
fund our operations.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statements of
Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 141, "Business Combinations" and No.
142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets", effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2001. Under the new rules, goodwill and intangible
assets deemed to have indefinite lives will no longer be amortized but will be
subject to annual impairment tests. Other intangible assets will continue to be
amortized over their useful lives. We are currently reviewing the impact of
these standards and will be performing a fair value analysis at a later date in
connection with the adoption of SFAS No. 142 on January 1, 2002.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk
Our revolving credit and term loan agreements bear interest at floating rates.
Accordingly, we are exposed to potential losses related to changes in interest
rates. We do not enter into derivatives or other financial instruments for
trading or speculative purposes. In order to manage our exposure to interest
rate risk, we enter into derivative financial instruments, typically interest
rate swaps and collars. The counterparties to our swap and collar agreements are
major financial institutions. As of June 30, 2001, our interest rate swap and
collar agreements expire in varying amounts through July 2003.
The fair market value and carrying value of our Notes was $733.5 million and
$693.0 million as of June 30, 2001. The fair market value of our credit facility
borrowings approximates its carrying value as the credit facility borrowings
bear interest at floating rates of interest. As of June 30, 2001, the estimated
fair value (cost if terminated) of our interest rate swap and collar agreements
was approximately $(14.4) million, which represents the amount required to enter
into offsetting contracts with similar remaining maturities based on quoted
market prices and is reflected in our financial statements as other non-current
liabilities. Changes in the fair value of derivative financial instruments are
either recognized in income or in stockholders' equity as a component of other
comprehensive income depending on whether the derivative financial instruments
qualify for hedge accounting.
As of June 30, 2001, we had entered into interest rate swaps that approximated
$625.0 million, or 42.6%, of our borrowings under all of our credit facilities.
Accordingly, a hypothetical 100 basis point increase in interest rates along the
entire interest rate yield curve would increase our annual interest expense by
approximately $8.7 million.
