                                   (Unaudited)

1.    CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

      Basis of Presentation
      The condensed  consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 1996 has been
      condensed from the audited consolidated balance sheet as of that date. The
      condensed  consolidated  balance sheet as of June 30, 1997,  the condensed
      consolidated  statement of operations and accumulated  deficit for the six
      and  three  months  ended  June  30,  1997  and  1996  and  the  condensed
      consolidated  statement  of cash flows for the six  months  ended June 30,
      1997 and 1996 have been prepared by Comcast  Corporation  (the  "Company")
      and have not been audited by the Company's  independent  auditors.  In the
      opinion  of  management,   all  adjustments  (which  include  only  normal
      recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position,
      results  of  operations  and cash  flows  as of June 30,  1997 and for all
      periods presented have been made.

      Certain  information  and  note  disclosures   normally  included  in  the
      Company's  annual  financial   statements   prepared  in  accordance  with
      generally accepted  accounting  principles have been condensed or omitted.
      These  condensed  consolidated  financial  statements  should  be  read in
      conjunction  with the financial  statements and notes thereto  included in
      the Company's  December 31, 1996 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the
      Securities  and Exchange  Commission.  The results of  operations  for the
      periods  ended June 30, 1997 are not  necessarily  indicative of operating
      results for the full year.

2.    SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

      New Accounting Pronouncements
      Effective January 1, 1997, the Company adopted the provisions of Statement
      of  Financial  Accounting  Standards  ("SFAS")  No. 125,  "Accounting  for
      Transfers  and  Servicing  of  Financial  Assets  and  Extinguishments  of
      Liabilities," which was issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board
      ("FASB") in June 1996. Under this statement, after a transfer of financial
      assets,  an  entity  recognizes  the  financial  and  servicing  assets it
      controls  and the  liabilities  it has  incurred,  derecognizes  financial
      assets when control has been surrendered and derecognizes liabilities when
      extinguished. Adoption of this statement did not have a significant impact
      on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations.

      In February 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share." This
      statement,  which  clarifies  and  supersedes  the  current  authoritative
      accounting literature regarding the computation and disclosure of earnings
      per share,  is  effective  for interim  and annual  periods  ending  after
      December  15, 1997 and may not be applied  earlier.  The Company  does not
      expect adoption of this statement to result in significant  changes to the
      Company's  calculation or presentation of loss for common stockholders per
      common share.

      In June 1997,  the FASB  issued  SFAS No.  130,  "Reporting  Comprehensive
      Income." This  statement,  which  establishes  standards for reporting and
      disclosure of  comprehensive  income,  is effective for interim and annual
      periods  beginning after December 15, 1997,  although  earlier adoption is
      permitted.  Reclassification of financial  information for earlier periods
      presented for comparative purposes is required under SFAS No. 130. As this
      statement   only  requires   additional   disclosures   in  the  Company's
      consolidated  financial statements,  its adoption will not have any impact
      on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations.
      The Company expects to adopt SFAS No. 130 effective January 1, 1998.

      In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of
      an Enterprise and Related Information." This statement,  which establishes
      standards for the reporting of information  about  operating  segments and
      requires the reporting of selected information about operating segments in
      interim  financial  statements,  is effective  for fiscal years  beginning
      after  December 15,  1997,  although  earlier  application  is  permitted.
      Reclassification  of segment information for earlier periods presented for
      comparative  purposes is required under SFAS No. 131. The Company does not
      expect adoption of this statement to result in significant  changes to its
      presentation of financial data by business segment. The Company expects to
      adopt SFAS No. 131 effective January 1, 1998.

      (Loss) Income for Common Stockholders Per Common Share
      Loss for common  stockholders  per common share  amounts were  computed by
      dividing net loss and loss before  extraordinary items, after deduction of
      preferred stock dividends, by the weighted average number of common shares
      outstanding  during the period. For the six months ended June 30, 1997 and
      1996 and for the three months ended June 30, 1997,  the  Company's  common
      stock  equivalents have an antidilutive  effect on net loss per share and,
      therefore,  have not been used in determining  the total weighted  average
      number of common shares outstanding.

      For the three months ended June 30, 1996, the Company's  shares which were
      issuable upon conversion of its  convertible  debentures and upon exercise
      of its then  outstanding  common  equity put options  were not included as
      common stock  equivalents,  since  inclusion of these shares would have an
      antidilutive effect on net income per share. The Company's dilutive common
      stock  equivalents for such period,  consisting  solely of shares issuable
      under employee stock  programs,  did not have any impact on net income per
      share as presented in the Company's  condensed  consolidated  statement of
      operations  and  accumulated  deficit for the three  months ended June 30,
      1996.  Therefore,  primary and fully diluted net income per share have not
      been presented for such period.  For the three months ended June 30, 1996,
      the primary and fully diluted weighted average number of common shares and
      common share equivalents outstanding were 241.0 million and 241.3 million,
      respectively.

      Reclassifications
      Certain  reclassifications  have  been made to the  prior  year  condensed
      consolidated financial statements to conform to those classifications used
      in 1997.

3.    ACQUISITIONS AND OTHER SIGNIFICANT EVENTS

      Microsoft Investment
      On June  30,  1997  (the  "Issuance  Date"),  the  Company  and  Microsoft
      Corporation  ("Microsoft")  completed  a  Stock  Purchase  Agreement  (the
      "Agreement")  under which Microsoft  purchased and the Company issued 24.6
      million shares of the Company's  Class A Special  Common Stock,  par value
      $1.00 per share (the "Class A Special  Stock"),  at $20.29 per share,  for
      $500.0  million and 500,000  shares of the  Company's  newly  issued 5.25%
      Series B Mandatorily  Redeemable  Convertible  Preferred  Stock, par value
      $1,000 per share (the "Series B Preferred Stock"), for $500.0 million.

      The Series B  Preferred  Stock has a 5.25%  pay-in-kind  annual  dividend.
      Dividends will be paid quarterly through the issuance of additional shares
      of  Series  B  Preferred  Stock  (the  "Additional  Shares")  and  will be
      cumulative from the Issuance Date (except that dividends on the Additional
      Shares will accrue from the date such Additional  Shares are issued).  The
      Series B Preferred Stock, including the Additional Shares, is convertible,
      at the option of  Microsoft,  into 21.2 million  shares of Class A Special
      Stock,  subject to  adjustment  in certain  limited  circumstances,  which
      equals an initial  conversion  price of $23.54 per share,  increasing as a
      result of the Additional  Shares to $33.91 per share on June 30, 2004. The
      Series B Preferred  Stock is mandatorily  redeemable on June 30, 2017, or,
      at the option of the Company  beginning  on June 30, 2004 or at the option
      of Microsoft on June 30, 2004 or on June 30, 2012.  Upon  redemption,  the
      Company, at its option, may redeem the Series B Preferred Stock with cash,
      Class A Special Stock or a combination  thereof.  As the Company currently
      intends to redeem the Series B Preferred  Stock with Class A Special Stock
      upon  redemption,  the Series B Preferred  Stock has been  classified as a
      component  of  stockholders'  equity  as of June 30,  1997.  The  Series B
      Preferred Stock is generally non-voting.

      Offerings of Subsidiary Debt
      On May 8, 1997, Comcast Cellular Holdings,  Inc. ("Comcast  Cellular"),  a
      wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, completed the sale of $1.0 billion
      principal  amount of 9 1/2% Senior Notes due 2007 (the  "Cellular  Notes")
      through a private offering with  registration  rights.  The Cellular Notes
      are  obligations  of  Comcast  Cellular  and are not  obligations  of, nor
      guaranteed  by, the Company.  Comcast  Cellular used the net proceeds from
      the offering to repay existing  borrowings by its subsidiaries,  including
      its senior participating redeemable zero coupon notes. Collectively, these
      transactions are referred to herein as the "Cellular Refinancing."

      On May 1, 1997,  Comcast Cable  Communications,  Inc. ("Comcast Cable"), a
      wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, completed the sale of $1.7 billion
      principal  amount of notes (the "Cable Notes") through a private  offering
      with  registration  rights.  The Cable Notes were issued in four tranches:
      $300.0 million  principal amount of 8 1/8% Notes due 2004,  $600.0 million
      principal amount of 8 3/8% Notes due 2007, $550.0 million principal amount
      of 8 7/8% Notes due 2017 and  $250.0  million  principal  amount of 8 1/2%
      Notes due 2027. The Notes due 2027 are subject to repurchase at the option
      of the holder in 2009.  The Cable Notes are  obligations  of Comcast Cable
      and are not obligations of, nor guaranteed by, the Company.  Comcast Cable
      used  substantially  all of the net  proceeds  from the  offering to repay
      existing borrowings by its subsidiaries.  Collectively, these transactions
      are referred to herein as the "Cable Refinancing."

      E! Entertainment
      On March 31, 1997, the Company, through Comcast Entertainment Holdings LLC
      (the  "LLC"),  which is owned  50.1% by the  Company and 49.9% by The Walt
      Disney Company ("Disney"),  purchased a 58.4% interest in E! Entertainment
      Television,  Inc.  ("E!  Entertainment"),   an  entertainment  programming
      service distributed to more than 42 million subscribers, from Time Warner,
      Inc.  ("Time  Warner") for $321.9 million (the "E!  Acquisition").  The E!
      Acquisition was funded by cash contributions to the LLC by the Company and
      Disney of $132.8 million and $189.1 million,  respectively.  In connection
      with the E! Acquisition,  the Company contributed its 10.4% interest in E!
      Entertainment  to the LLC.  Following these  transactions,  the LLC owns a
      68.8% interest in E!  Entertainment.  To fund the cash contribution to the
      LLC, the Company  borrowed  $132.8  million from Disney in the form of two
      10-year, 7% notes (the "Disney Notes").

      The Company accounted for the E! Acquisition under the purchase method and
      E!  Entertainment  was consolidated  with the Company  effective March 31,
      1997.  The  allocation  of the purchase  price  relating to the assets and
      liabilities of E! Entertainment is preliminary pending a final appraisal.

      After September 1998,  Disney,  in certain  circumstances,  is entitled to
      request that the LLC purchase  Disney's  entire interest in the LLC at its
      then fair market value (as determined by an appraisal process). If the LLC
      elects not to purchase  Disney's  interest,  Disney has the right,  at its
      option, to purchase either the Company's entire interest in the LLC or all
      of the shares of stock of E!  Entertainment  held by the LLC, in each case
      at fair market value.  In the event that Disney  exercises its rights,  as
      described above, a portion or all of the Disney Notes may be replaced with
      a three year note due to Disney.

      Scripps Cable
      In November 1996,  the Company  acquired the cable  television  operations
      ("Scripps Cable") of The E.W. Scripps Company ("E.W. Scripps") in exchange
      for  93.048  million  shares  of Class A  Special  Stock  valued at $1.552
      billion (the "Scripps Acquisition"). The Company accounted for the Scripps
      Acquisition  under the purchase method and Scripps Cable was  consolidated
      with the  Company  effective  November  1, 1996.  The terms of the Scripps
      Acquisition  provide for, among other things,  the  indemnification of the
      Company  by  E.  W.  Scripps  for  certain   liabilities,   including  tax
      liabilities, relating to Scripps Cable prior to the acquisition date.

      Comcast-Spectacor
      In July 1996, the Company  completed its acquisition  (the "Sports Venture
      Acquisition")  of a  66%  interest  in  the  Philadelphia  Flyers  Limited
      Partnership,  a Pennsylvania limited partnership  ("PFLP"),  the assets of
      which, after giving effect to the Sports Venture  Acquisition,  consist of
      (i) the  National  Basketball  Association  ("NBA")  franchise  to own and
      operate the  Philadelphia  76ers  basketball  team and related assets (the
      "Sixers"),  (ii) the National  Hockey League ("NHL")  franchise to own and
      operate the Philadelphia  Flyers hockey team and related assets, and (iii)
      two adjacent arenas, leasehold interests in and development rights related
      to the land  underlying  the  arenas  and other  adjacent  parcels of land
      located  in  Philadelphia,   Pennsylvania  (collectively,  the  "Arenas").
      Concurrent with the completion of the Sports Venture Acquisition, PFLP was
      renamed Comcast Spectacor, L.P. ("Comcast-Spectacor").

      The Sports Venture  Acquisition was completed in two steps. In April 1996,
      the Company  purchased the Sixers for $125.0  million in cash plus assumed
      net  liabilities  of  approximately  $11.0  million  through a partnership
      controlled by the Company. To complete the Sports Venture Acquisition,  in
      July 1996, the Company  contributed its interest

      in the Sixers, exchanged approximately 3.5 million shares of the Company's
      Class A Special  Stock and 6,370 shares of the  Company's  newly issued 5%
      Series A  Convertible  Preferred  Stock and paid $15.0 million in cash for
      its current interest in  Comcast-Spectacor.  The remaining 34% interest in
      Comcast-Spectacor is owned by a group, including the former majority owner
      of PFLP, who also manages Comcast-Spectacor. In connection with the Sports
      Venture Acquisition, Comcast-Spectacor assumed the outstanding liabilities
      relating to the Sixers and the Arenas,  including a mortgage obligation of
      $155.0 million. The Company accounts for its interest in Comcast-Spectacor
      under the equity method (see Note 4).

      Unaudited Pro Forma Information
      The  following  unaudited pro forma  information  for the six months ended
      June 30, 1996 has been presented as if the Scripps Acquisition occurred on
      January  1,  1996.  This  unaudited  pro  forma  information  is  based on
      historical results of operations,  adjusted for acquisition costs, and, in
      the  opinion of  management,  is not  necessarily  indicative  of what the
      results  would have been had the  Company  operated  Scripps  Cable  since
      January 1, 1996 (dollars in millions, except per common share data).

      Equity Method
      The Company records its  proportionate  interests in the net income (loss)
      of  substantially  all of its investees,  other than the UK Investees (see
      below), three months in arrears. The Company's recorded investments exceed
      its proportionate interests in the book value of the investees' net assets
      by  $227.6  million  as  of  June  30,  1997  (primarily  related  to  the
      investments in Comcast-Spectacor  and Sprint PCS (see below)). Such excess
      is being  amortized  to equity in net  income  or loss,  primarily  over a
      period of twenty years,  which is consistent  with the estimated  lives of
      the  underlying  assets.  The original cost of  investments  accounted for
      under the equity method  totaled  $1.324  billion and $1.271 billion as of
      June 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996,  respectively.  Summarized  financial
      information for the Company's  equity method  investees is presented below
      (dollars in millions).

      (1)   Net loss also  represents  loss from  continuing  operations  before
            extraordinary  items and cumulative  effect of changes in accounting
            principle.
      (2)   As a result of the E!  Acquisition,  the  Company  recorded a charge
            representing the cumulative amount that would have been recorded had
            the Company accounted for its investment in E!  Entertainment  under
            the  equity  method  since  the  date  of  initial  investment  (the
            "Cumulative Charge").  Since the Company's proportionate share of E!
            Entertainment's  cumulative  losses  was in excess of the  Company's
            historical  cost basis in E!  Entertainment  and as the  Company was
            under  no   contractual   obligation   to  fund  the  losses  of  E!
            Entertainment,  the  Cumulative  Charge was limited to the Company's
            historical  cost basis of $12.1 million.  Such amount is included in

      Sprint  PCS.  The  Company,   Tele-Communications,   Inc.   ("TCI"),   Cox
      Communications,   Inc.  ("Cox")  and  Sprint  Corporation  ("Sprint,"  and
      together  with the  Company,  TCI and Cox,  the  "Parents"),  and  certain
      subsidiaries  of  the  Parents,  engage  in  the  wireless  communications
      business  through a limited  partnership  known as  "Sprint  Spectrum"  or
      "Sprint PCS," a development  stage  enterprise  through June 30, 1997. The
      Company  made its initial  investment  in 1994 and,  as of June 30,  1997,
      holds a general and limited partnership interest of 15% in Sprint PCS. The
      Company's  investment  in Sprint  PCS is  accounted  for under the  equity
      method  based  on the  Company's  general  partnership  interest  and  its
      representation on the partnership's board of directors.

      TCGI.  Through  June  1996,  the  Company  held  investments  in  Teleport
      Communications Group, Inc. ("TCGI"),  TCG Partners and certain local joint
      ventures (the "Teleport Joint Ventures") managed by TCGI and TCG Partners.

      is one of the largest  competitive  alternative  access  providers  in the
      United States in terms of route miles.  The Company had a 20.0% investment
      in TCGI and interests in the Teleport Joint Ventures ranging from 12.4% to
      20.3%.  In June 1996,  TCGI sold  approximately  27 million  shares of its
      Class A Common Stock (the "TCGI Class A Stock"),  for $16 per share, in an
      initial public offering (the "TCGI IPO"). In connection with the TCGI IPO,
      TCGI, the Company and subsidiaries of Cox, TCI and Continental Cablevision
      ("Continental" and collectively with Cox, TCI and the Company,  the "Cable
      Stockholders")  entered  into an  agreement  pursuant  to  which  TCGI was
      reorganized (the "Reorganization"). The Reorganization consisted of, among
      other  things:  (i) the  acquisition  by TCGI of TCG  Partners;  (ii)  the
      acquisition by TCGI of additional interests in the Teleport Joint Ventures
      (including  100% of those  interests  held by the Company);  and (iii) the
      contribution  to TCGI of  $269.0  million  aggregate  principal  amount of
      indebtedness,  plus accrued  interest  thereon,  owed by TCGI to the Cable
      Stockholders  (except that TCI retained a $26 million subordinated note of
      TCGI),  including  $53.8  million  principal  amount  and $4.1  million of
      accrued   interest   owed  to  the  Company.   In   connection   with  the
      Reorganization, the Company received 25.6 million shares of TCGI's Class B
      Common Stock (the "TCGI Class B Stock").  Each share of TCGI Class B Stock
      is entitled to voting power equivalent to ten shares of TCGI Class A Stock
      and is  convertible,  at the option of the holder,  into one share of TCGI
      Class A Stock.  As a result of the TCGI IPO, the Company  recorded a $40.6
      million increase in its proportionate share of TCGI's net assets as a gain
      from equity offering of affiliate in its condensed  consolidated statement
      of operations and  accumulated  deficit for the six and three months ended
      June 30, 1996.

      During the three months ended March 31, 1997,  the Company  received  2.76
      million  shares  of TCGI  Class  A Stock  from  TCGI in  exchange  for the
      Company's shares of an alternate access provider. In May 1997, the Company
      sold  all of its  shares  of TCGI  Class A Stock  for  $68.9  million  and
      recognized a $68.9 million  pre-tax gain,  which is included in investment
      income  in  its  condensed   consolidated   statement  of  operations  and
      accumulated deficit for the six and three months ended June 30, 1997.

      As of June 30, 1997,  the Company owns TCGI Class B Stock  representing  a
      19.8% voting interest and a 15.5% equity interest.  The Company  continues
      to account for its  interest in TCGI under the equity  method based on its
      voting  interest   maintained   through  the  TCGI  Class  B  Stock,   its
      representation  on TCGI's board of directors  and its  participation  in a
      TCGI  stockholder  agreement  granting  certain rights to a control group.
      Assuming  conversion  of the TCGI Class B Stock held by the  Company  into
      TCGI Class A Stock, the Company's investment in TCGI, which had a carrying
      value of $131.1  million as of June 30,  1997,  would have a fair value of
      approximately $1.009 billion, based on the quoted market price of the TCGI
      Class A Stock as of July 31, 1997.

      UK  Investees.  As of June 30,  1997,  Comcast UK Cable  Partners  Limited
      ("Comcast UK Cable"),  a consolidated  subsidiary of the Company,  holds a
      27.5%  interest  in  Birmingham  Cable  Corporation  Limited  and a  50.0%
      interest in Cable London PLC. In addition,  Comcast UK Cable  historically
      held an  investment  in  Cambridge  Holding  Company  Limited  ("Cambridge
      Cable").  In March 1996,  Comcast UK Cable purchased the 50.0% interest in
      Cambridge   Cable  that  it  had  not   previously   owned  for  cash  and
      approximately  8.9 million of its Class A Common  Shares  (the  "Cambridge
      Acquisition").  Following the Cambridge Acquisition, Comcast UK Cable owns
      100.0% of Cambridge  Cable and  consolidated  the  financial  position and
      results of operations of Cambridge Cable effective March 31, 1996.

      Other. The Company's 11 other equity method investees include  investments
      in wired telecommunications  (including Garden State Cablevision,  L.P., a
      cable  communications  company serving 207,000  subscribers as of June 30,
      1997 in the State of New Jersey), wireless  telecommunications  (including
      Primestar - see below) and content providers (including  Comcast-Spectacor
      - see Note 3). The Company holds interests  representing  less than 20% of
      the total  outstanding  ownership  interest in certain of its other equity
      method  investees.  The equity  method of accounting is utilized for these
      investments  based on the type of  investment  (i.e.  general  partnership
      interest),  board representation,  participation in a controlling investor
      group,  significant shareholder rights or a combination of these and other
      factors. In addition,  the Company's 66% interest in Comcast- Spectacor is
      accounted  for under the equity  method  since the  Company  does not have
      control  over  Comcast-  Spectacor's  operations.  The  Company  does  not
      consider  these  other  equity  method   investments  to  be  individually
      significant to its consolidated financial position,  results of operations
      or liquidity.

      Roll-up of Primestar's Operations.  In June 1997, the Company entered into
      a binding  letter  agreement  (the  "Roll-up  Agreement")  with  PRIMESTAR
      Partners  L.P.  ("Primestar")  and the  affiliates  of  each of the  other
      partners  of  Primestar,  including  TCI  Satellite  Entertainment,   Inc.
      ("TSAT"), a publicly-traded company. Primestar, in which the Company holds
      a 10.4% general and limited partnership  interest,  is principally engaged
      in the business of  acquiring,  originating  and/or  providing  television
      programming   services   delivered  by  satellite  through  a  network  of
      distributors,  including the Company,  throughout the United  States.  The
      Roll-up  Agreement  sets forth the  principal  terms and  conditions  of a
      proposed  transaction  (the  "Roll-up  Transaction"),  through  which  the
      Company's direct broadcast satellite ("DBS") operations, Primestar and the
      Primestar-related   distribution  businesses  of  the  other  partners  of
      Primestar will be consolidated into a newly-formed publicly-traded company
      ("New Primestar").  In connection with the Roll-up Transaction,  TSAT will
      become a wholly owned  subsidiary of New Primestar.  The Company  provided
      DBS services,  through a  distributorship  arrangement with Primestar,  to
      152,000 subscribers as of June 30, 1997.

      New   Primestar   will  acquire  the  Primestar   partnership   interests,
      subscribers  and  related  assets,  as  applicable,  of the parties to the
      Roll-up  Transaction,  in exchange  for (i) cash,  (ii) shares of Series A
      Common Stock of New Primestar and (iii) shares of Series C Common Stock of
      New  Primestar,  in each  case in an  amount  determined  pursuant  to the
      Roll-up  Agreement.  The Company  will  continue to market and support the
      Primestar  programming  services on an agency basis after  consummation of
      the Roll-up  Transaction;  however, the terms of such arrangement have not
      yet been  determined.  Under  the  terms of the  Roll-up  Agreement,  upon
      closing of the  Roll-up  Transaction,  the  Company is expected to receive
      approximately  $90  million  in cash and to own  approximately  10% of New
      Primestar  common equity,  subject to  adjustments  based on the number of
      subscribers,  inventory  amounts and other  factors.  As of June 30, 1997,
      assets of the Company's DBS operations totaled $138.2 million.

      In  June  1997,   Primestar  entered  into  an  agreement  with  The  News
      Corporation Limited, MCI  Telecommunications  Corporation and American Sky
      Broadcasting LLC ("ASkyB"), pursuant to which Primestar (or, under certain
      circumstances,  New Primestar) will acquire certain assets relating to the
      high-power, DBS business of ASkyB. In exchange for such assets, ASkyB will
      receive  non-voting  securities of New Primestar  that will be convertible
      into  non-voting  common stock of New  Primestar  and,  accordingly,  will
      reduce  the  Company's   common  equity   interest  in  New  Primestar  to
      approximately 7% on a fully diluted basis.

      These  transactions  are not  conditioned  on  each  other  and may  close
      independently.  They are expected to close in 1998,  subject to receipt of
      all  necessary  governmental  and  regulatory  approvals,   including  the
      approval  of  the  Federal  Communications  Commission.  There  can  be no
      assurance that such approvals will be obtained.

      @Home.  On July 11,  1997 (the  "@Home  IPO  Date"),  At Home  Corporation
      ("@Home"), an equity method investee of the Company,  completed an initial
      public  offering of its Series A Common  Stock.  @Home  provides  Internet
      services  to  customers   and   businesses   over  the  cable   television
      infrastructure in a limited number of cities in the United States.  During
      the third quarter of 1997, due to the dilution of the Company's equity and
      voting interest and other factors,  the Company expects to discontinue the
      equity method of accounting for its  investment in @Home.  As of the @Home
      IPO Date,  the Company held 14.6  million  shares of @Home Series A Common
      Stock,   representing  a  12.2%  and  5.7%  equity  and  voting  interest,
      respectively.

      Investments - Public Companies
      The Company holds  unrestricted  equity  investments  in certain  publicly
      traded companies, including its investments in Nextel Communications, Inc.
      ("Nextel") and Time Warner (see below),  with an historical cost of $140.3
      million and $212.7  million as of June 30,  1997 and  December  31,  1996,

      been reported in the Company's condensed  consolidated  balance sheet as a
      component of  stockholders'  equity,  net of related  deferred  income tax
      expense of $4.9 million and $0.1 million, respectively.

      As of June 30, 1997 and December  31,  1996,  the Company held 3.3 million
      shares of Nextel common stock.  In addition,  as of December 31, 1996, the
      Company  held  options to acquire an  additional  25.0  million  shares of
      Nextel  common  stock at $16 per share.  As of December  31,  1996,  these
      options,  which had an historical cost of $20.0 million,  were included in
      investments  in  publicly  traded  companies  at their fair value of $32.6
      million.  In February  1997,  the Company sold these options to Nextel for
      $25.0  million and  recognized  a pre-tax gain of $5.0  million,  which is
      included in investment income in its condensed  consolidated  statement of
      operations and accumulated deficit for the six months ended June 30, 1997.
      In July 1997,  the Company  sold its 3.3 million  shares of Nextel  common
      stock for $73.4  million  resulting  in a pre-tax  gain of $32.1  million,
      which will be recognized in the third quarter of 1997. Accordingly,  as of
      June 30, 1997,  the Company's  investment in Nextel,  which is recorded at
      its fair value of $62.1 million, is included in short-term  investments in
      the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheet.

      In February  1996, in  connection  with certain  preemptive  rights of the
      Company under  previously  existing  agreements  with Nextel,  the Company
      purchased  8.16 million shares of Nextel common stock at $12.25 per share,
      for $99.9  million.  During  the three  months  ended June 30,  1996,  the
      Company sold 4.4 million  shares of Nextel  common stock for $85.6 million
      and  recognized  a pre-tax  gain of $29.7  million,  which is  included in
      investment  income in its condensed  consolidated  statement of operations
      and accumulated deficit for the six and three months ended June 30, 1996.

      The Company  received 1.36 million shares of Time Warner common stock (the
      "Time Warner Stock") in exchange (the "Exchange") for all of the shares of
      Turner  Broadcasting  System, Inc. ("TBS") stock (the "TBS Stock") held by
      the  Company as a result of the  merger of Time  Warner and TBS in October
      1996. As a result of the Exchange,  the Company  recognized a pre-tax gain
      of  $47.3  million  in  the  fourth  quarter  of  1996,  representing  the
      difference between the Company's historical cost basis in the TBS Stock of
      $8.9 million and the new basis for the Company's investment in Time Warner
      Stock of $56.2  million,  which was based on the closing price of the Time
      Warner Stock on the merger date of $41.375 per share. In December 1996 and
      January  1997,  the Company sold 92,500  shares and 1.27  million  shares,
      respectively,  of the Time Warner Stock, representing the Company's entire
      interest in Time Warner, for $3.7 million and $48.6 million, respectively.
      In  connection  with the January  1997 sales,  the  Company  recognized  a
      pre-tax loss of $3.8 million,  which is included in  investment  income in
      its condensed consolidated statement of operations and accumulated deficit
      for the six months ended June 30, 1997. As of December 31, 1996,  the 1.27
      million  shares of Time Warner Stock held by the Company were  recorded at
      their  fair  value  of  $47.4  million  and were  included  in  short-term
      investments in the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheet.

5.    LONG-TERM DEBT

      The Cable  Refinancing  and the  Cellular  Refinancing  had a  significant
      impact on the maturities of the Company's  long-term  debt.  Maturities of
      long-term debt outstanding as of June 30, 1997 through 2001 are as follows
      (dollars in millions).

           1997 (1)................................             $560.9
           1998....................................              117.6
           1999....................................              207.4
           2000....................................              301.7
           2001....................................              577.8

      ---------------
      (1)  Represents  maturities of long-term debt for the remaining six months
           of 1997,  which includes  $527.0 million of optional debt  repayments
           made in July 1997 (see below).

      As of June  30,  1997 and  December  31,  1996,  the  Company's  effective
      weighted average interest rate on its long-term debt outstanding was 8.02%
      and 7.68%, respectively.

      On  June  30,  1997,  the  Company  redeemed  all of its  outstanding  10%
      Subordinated  Debentures,  due 2003 (the "10%  Debentures").  An aggregate
      principal amount of $139.3 million of the 10% Debentures was redeemed at a

      redemption  price of 100% of the principal  amount thereof,  together with
      accrued interest  thereon.  On the date of redemption,  the 10% Debentures
      had an accreted value of $127.7 million.

      In connection with the Cable Refinancing, the Cellular Refinancing and the
      redemption of the 10% Debentures,  the Company  expensed  unamortized debt
      acquisition costs and incurred debt extinguishment costs of $35.1 million,
      resulting in an extraordinary  loss, net of tax, of $22.8 million or $0.07
      per common share during the six and three months ended June 30, 1997.

      In July 1997, the Company made optional debt repayments aggregating $527.0
      million with existing cash, cash  equivalents and short-term  investments.
      Current  portion  of  long-term  debt as of June 30,  1997  includes  such
      amount.  As a result of these debt  repayments,  the Company  will expense
      unamortized  debt  acquisition  costs  of $3.5  million,  resulting  in an
      extraordinary  loss,  net of tax, of $2.3 million in the third  quarter of
      1997.

      As of July 31, 1997, certain  subsidiaries of the Company had unused lines
      of credit of $1.129 billion.  The availability and use of the unused lines
      of credit is restricted  by the  covenants of the related debt  agreements
      and to subsidiary general purposes and dividend  declaration.  The Company
      continually  evaluates its debt  structure  with the intention of reducing
      its debt service requirements when desirable.

6.    STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

      Concurrent  with the  announcement  of the Scripps  Acquisition in October
      1995,  the Company  announced  that its Board of  Directors  authorized  a
      market repurchase program (the "Repurchase Program") pursuant to which the
      Company  could  purchase,  at such  times  and on such  terms as it deemed
      appropriate,  up to  $500.0  million  of  its  outstanding  common  equity
      securities,  subject to certain restrictions and market conditions.  Based
      on the trade date for stock  repurchases,  during the six and three months
      ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, the Company  repurchased 2.3 million shares,
      6.5  million   shares,   1.6  million  shares  and  3.3  million   shares,
      respectively,  of its common stock for  aggregate  consideration  of $36.2
      million,  $116.6 million,  $24.7 million and $59.9 million,  respectively,
      pursuant  to the  Repurchase  Program.  During the term of the  Repurchase
      Program, which terminated on May 13, 1997, the Company repurchased a total
      of 13.5 million shares of its common stock for aggregate  consideration of
      $228.6 million.

      As part of the Repurchase Program,  the Company sold put options on shares
      of its Class A Special Stock.  Put options on 4.0 million shares,  sold by
      the Company  during 1996 and 1995 and  outstanding  at December  31, 1996,
      expired unexercised during the first quarter of 1997. Upon expiration, the
      Company  reclassified  $69.6  million,  the  amount  it  would  have  been
      obligated  to pay to  repurchase  such  shares  had the put  options  been
      exercised,  from common  equity put options to  additional  capital in the
      Company's condensed consolidated balance sheet.

      As part of the  Repurchase  Program,  in April 1997,  the Company sold put
      options  on 2.0  million  shares  of its Class A  Special  Stock.  The put
      options  give the holder the right to require  the  Company to  repurchase
      such shares at a specified  price on specific dates in April and May 1998.
      The amount the Company would be obligated to pay to repurchase such shares
      upon  exercise  of the put  options,  totaling  $31.4  million,  has  been
      reclassified  from additional  capital to common equity put options in the
      Company's June 30, 1997 condensed consolidated balance sheet.

7.    STATEMENT OF CASH FLOWS - SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION

      The Company  made cash  payments for  interest of $233.8  million,  $229.7
      million, $116.7 million and $127.7 million during the six and three months

ITEM 2.        MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
               RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

The Company has  experienced  significant  growth in recent  years both  through
strategic  acquisitions and growth in its existing  businesses.  The Company has
historically  met its cash  needs for  operations  through  its cash  flows from
operating   activities.   Cash   requirements   for   acquisitions  and  capital
expenditures have been provided through the Company's  financing  activities and
sales of long-term  investments,  as well as its existing cash, cash equivalents
and short-term investments.

General Developments of Business

Microsoft Investment
On June 30, 1997 (the "Issuance  Date"),  the Company and Microsoft  Corporation
("Microsoft") completed a Stock Purchase Agreement (the "Agreement") under which
Microsoft  purchased and the Company issued 24.6 million shares of the Company's
Class A Special  Common  Stock,  par value $1.00 per share (the "Class A Special
Stock"),  at $20.29 per share,  for $500.0  million  and  500,000  shares of the
Company's  newly  issued  5.25%  Series  B  Mandatorily  Redeemable  Convertible
Preferred  Stock,  par value $1,000 per share (the "Series B Preferred  Stock"),
for $500.0 million.

The Series B Preferred Stock has a 5.25% pay-in-kind annual dividend.  Dividends
will be paid  quarterly  through the issuance of  additional  shares of Series B
Preferred  Stock  (the  "Additional  Shares")  and will be  cumulative  from the
Issuance Date (except that dividends on the  Additional  Shares will accrue from
the date such  Additional  Shares are  issued).  The Series B  Preferred  Stock,
including the Additional  Shares,  is  convertible,  at the option of Microsoft,
into 21.2 million  shares of Class A Special  Stock,  subject to  adjustment  in
certain  limited  circumstances,  which  equals an initial  conversion  price of
$23.54 per share,  increasing as a result of the Additional Shares to $33.91 per
share on June 30, 2004. The Series B Preferred  Stock is mandatorily  redeemable
on June 30, 2017, or, at the option of the Company beginning on June 30, 2004 or
at the  option  of  Microsoft  on  June  30,  2004  or on June  30,  2012.  Upon
redemption,  the Company, at its option, may redeem the Series B Preferred Stock
with  cash,  Class A Special  Stock or a  combination  thereof.  As the  Company
currently  intends to redeem the Series B  Preferred  Stock with Class A Special
Stock upon  redemption,  the Series B Preferred  Stock has been  classified as a
component of  stockholders'  equity as of June 30, 1997.  The Series B Preferred
Stock is generally non-voting.

Offerings of Subsidiary Debt
On May 8, 1997, Comcast Cellular Holdings,  Inc. ("Comcast Cellular"),  a wholly
owned  subsidiary of the Company,  completed the sale of $1.0 billion  principal
amount of 9 1/2% Senior Notes due 2007 (the "Cellular  Notes") through a private
offering with registration rights. The Cellular Notes are obligations of Comcast
Cellular and are not  obligations  of, nor guaranteed  by, the Company.  Comcast
Cellular used the net proceeds from the offering to repay existing borrowings by
its  subsidiaries,  including its senior  participating  redeemable  zero coupon
notes. Collectively,  these transactions are referred to herein as the "Cellular
Refinancing."

On May 1, 1997, Comcast Cable  Communications,  Inc. ("Comcast Cable"), a wholly
owned  subsidiary of the Company,  completed the sale of $1.7 billion  principal
amount of notes (the "Cable Notes") through a private offering with registration
rights.  The Cable Notes were issued in four tranches:  $300.0 million principal
amount of 8 1/8% Notes due 2004, $600.0 million principal amount of 8 3/8% Notes
due 2007,  $550.0 million  principal  amount of 8 7/8% Notes due 2017 and $250.0
million  principal  amount  of 8 1/2%  Notes  due  2027.  The Notes due 2027 are
subject to repurchase  at the option of the holder in 2009.  The Cable Notes are
obligations of Comcast Cable and are not  obligations of, nor guaranteed by, the
Company.  Comcast  Cable used  substantially  all of the net  proceeds  from the
offering to repay existing borrowings by its subsidiaries.  Collectively,  these
transactions are referred to herein as the "Cable Refinancing."

E! Entertainment
On March 31, 1997, the Company,  through Comcast Entertainment Holdings LLC (the
"LLC"), which is owned 50.1% by the Company and 49.9% by The Walt Disney Company
("Disney"), purchased a 58.4% interest in E! Entertainment Television, Inc. ("E!
Entertainment"),  an entertainment  programming service distributed to more than
42 million

subscribers,  from Time Warner, Inc. ("Time Warner") for $321.9 million (the "E!
Acquisition"). The E! Acquisition was funded by cash contributions to the LLC by
the Company and Disney of $132.8 million and $189.1  million,  respectively.  In
connection with the E! Acquisition,  the Company  contributed its 10.4% interest
in E!  Entertainment to the LLC.  Following these  transactions,  the LLC owns a
68.8% interest in E!  Entertainment.  To fund the cash  contribution to the LLC,
the Company  borrowed $132.8 million from Disney in the form of two 10-year,  7%
notes (the "Disney Notes").

The Company  accounted for the E!  Acquisition  under the purchase method and E!
Entertainment  was consolidated  with the Company  effective March 31, 1997. The
allocation of the purchase price relating to the assets and liabilities of E!
Entertainment is preliminary pending a final appraisal.

After September 1998, Disney, in certain  circumstances,  is entitled to request
that the LLC  purchase  Disney's  entire  interest  in the LLC at its then  fair
market value (as determined by an appraisal  process).  If the LLC elects not to
purchase  Disney's  interest,  Disney has the right, at its option,  to purchase
either the Company's entire interest in the LLC or all of the shares of stock of
E!  Entertainment  held by the LLC,  in each case at fair market  value.  In the
event that Disney exercises its rights,  as described above, a portion or all of
the Disney Notes may be replaced with a three year note due to Disney.

Scripps Cable
In November 1996, the Company acquired the cable television operations ("Scripps
Cable") of The E.W.  Scripps  Company  ("E.W.  Scripps")  in exchange for 93.048
million  shares of Class A Special Stock valued at $1.552  billion (the "Scripps
Acquisition").  The  Company  accounted  for the Scripps  Acquisition  under the
purchase method and Scripps Cable was  consolidated  with the Company  effective
November 1, 1996. The terms of the Scripps  Acquisition provide for, among other
things,  the  indemnification  of the  Company  by E.  W.  Scripps  for  certain
liabilities,  including tax liabilities,  relating to Scripps Cable prior to the
acquisition date.

Comcast-Spectacor
In July 1996,  the  Company  completed  its  acquisition  (the  "Sports  Venture
Acquisition") of a 66% interest in the Philadelphia Flyers Limited  Partnership,
a Pennsylvania limited partnership  ("PFLP"),  the assets of which, after giving
effect to the Sports Venture Acquisition, consist of (i) the National Basketball
Association  ("NBA")  franchise  to  own  and  operate  the  Philadelphia  76ers
basketball  team and related  assets (the  "Sixers"),  (ii) the National  Hockey
League ("NHL") franchise to own and operate the Philadelphia  Flyers hockey team
and related assets,  and (iii) two adjacent arenas,  leasehold  interests in and
development  rights related to the land underlying the arenas and other adjacent
parcels  of  land  located  in  Philadelphia,  Pennsylvania  (collectively,  the
"Arenas").  Concurrent  with the completion of the Sports  Venture  Acquisition,
PFLP was renamed Comcast Spectacor, L.P. ("Comcast-Spectacor").

The Sports Venture  Acquisition  was completed in two steps.  In April 1996, the
Company  purchased  the  Sixers  for $125.0  million  in cash plus  assumed  net
liabilities of approximately  $11.0 million through a partnership  controlled by
the  Company.  To complete the Sports  Venture  Acquisition,  in July 1996,  the
Company  contributed  its interest in the Sixers,  exchanged  approximately  3.5
million  shares of the  Company's  Class A Special Stock and 6,370 shares of the
Company's  newly issued 5% Series A Convertible  Preferred  Stock and paid $15.0
million in cash for its current interest in Comcast-Spectacor. The remaining 34%
interest in Comcast-Spectacor is owned by a group, including the former majority
owner of PFLP, who also manages Comcast-Spectacor. In connection with the Sports
Venture  Acquisition,  Comcast-Spectacor  assumed  the  outstanding  liabilities
relating to the Sixers and the Arenas, including a mortgage obligation of $155.0
million.  The Company accounts for its interest in  Comcast-Spectacor  under the
equity method.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Short-term Investments
The  Company  has  traditionally  maintained  significant  levels of cash,  cash
equivalents  and  short-term   investments  to  meet  its  short-term  liquidity
requirements.  Cash, cash equivalents and short-term  investments as of June 30,
1997 were $1.409 billion.  As of June 30, 1997,  $276.6 million of the Company's
cash,  cash  equivalents  and  short-term  investments  was restricted to use by
subsidiaries of the Company under contractual or other  arrangements,  including
$132.5 million which is restricted to use by Comcast UK Cable  Partners  Limited
("Comcast UK Cable").

                           QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 1997


The Company's cash, cash equivalents and short-term  investments are recorded at
cost which  approximates  their fair value.  As of June 30, 1997,  the Company's
short-term  investments of $144.4  million  include 3.3 million shares of Nextel
Communications,  Inc.  ("Nextel")  common stock  recorded at their fair value of
$62.1 million (see "Investments"). The remaining short-term investments of $82.3
million had a weighted average maturity of approximately 13 months. However, due
to the high  degree  of  liquidity  and the  intent of  management  to use these
investments  as needed to fund its  commitments,  the  Company  considers  these
current assets.

Investments
Sprint PCS. The Company, Tele-Communications,  Inc. ("TCI"), Cox Communications,
Inc.  ("Cox," and together  with the Company and TCI, the "Cable  Parents")  and
Sprint  Corporation   ("Sprint,"  and  together  with  the  Cable  Parents,  the
"Parents"),   and   certain   subsidiaries   of  the   Parents   (the   "Partner
Subsidiaries"), engage in the wireless communications business through a limited
partnership  known as "Sprint  Spectrum" or "Sprint  PCS," a  development  stage
enterprise  through  June 30,  1997.  The  Company  owns 15% of  Sprint  PCS and
accounts for its investment in Sprint PCS under the equity method.

Under the  provisions  of the  Sprint PCS  partnership  agreement,  the  Partner
Subsidiaries  have  committed to  contribute  $4.2 billion in cash to Sprint PCS
through 1999, of which the Company's  share is $630.0  million.  Of this funding
requirement,  the  Company  has made total cash  contributions  to Sprint PCS of
$501.3 million  through July 31, 1997 and issued a $105.0 million  guaranty on a
portion of Sprint PCS' outstanding  debt, which may be satisfied  through making
additional contributions to Sprint PCS under the remaining cash commitment.  The
Company anticipates that Sprint PCS' capital  requirements over the next several
years will be  significant.  Requirements  in excess of  committed  capital  are
planned to be funded by Sprint PCS through external  financing,  including,  but
not limited to, vendor financing,  bank financing and securities  offered to the
public.  In August  1996,  Sprint PCS sold $750.0  million  principal  amount at
maturity  of  Senior  Notes  and  Senior  Discount  Notes  due  2006 in a public
offering. In October 1996, Sprint PCS closed three credit agreements providing a
total of $5.1 billion in  available  financing,  including  $2.0 billion in bank
financing  and $3.1  billion in vendor  financing.  The timing of the  Company's
remaining  capital  contributions  to Sprint PCS is  dependent  upon a number of
factors,  including  Sprint  PCS'  working  capital  requirements.  The  Company
anticipates  funding its remaining capital commitments to Sprint PCS through its
cash flows from  operating  activities,  its existing  cash,  cash  equivalents,
short-term investments and lines of credit or other external financing,  or by a
combination of these sources.

TCGI. Through June 1996, the Company held investments in Teleport Communications
Group,  Inc.  ("TCGI"),  TCG  Partners  and certain  local joint  ventures  (the
"Teleport Joint Ventures") managed by TCGI and TCG Partners.  TCGI is one of the
largest  competitive  alternative access providers in the United States in terms
of route miles.  The Company had a 20.0% investment in TCGI and interests in the
Teleport Joint  Ventures  ranging from 12.4% to 20.3%.  In June 1996,  TCGI sold
approximately  27 million  shares of its Class A Common Stock (the "TCGI Class A
Stock"),  for $16 per share,  in an initial public offering (the "TCGI IPO"). In
connection with the TCGI IPO, TCGI, the Company and subsidiaries of Cox, TCI and
Continental  Cablevision  ("Continental"  and collectively with Cox, TCI and the
Company, the "Cable  Stockholders")  entered into an agreement pursuant to which
TCGI was reorganized (the  "Reorganization").  The Reorganization  consisted of,
among  other  things:  (i) the  acquisition  by TCGI of TCG  Partners;  (ii) the
acquisition  by TCGI of  additional  interests  in the Teleport  Joint  Ventures
(including  100%  of  those  interests  held  by the  Company);  and  (iii)  the
contribution  to  TCGI  of  $269.0  million   aggregate   principal   amount  of
indebtedness,  plus  accrued  interest  thereon,  owed  by  TCGI  to  the  Cable
Stockholders (except that TCI retained a $26 million subordinated note of TCGI),
including $53.8 million  principal  amount and $4.1 million of accrued  interest
owed to the Company. In connection with the Reorganization, the Company received
25.6  million  shares of TCGI's Class B Common Stock (the "TCGI Class B Stock").
Each share of TCGI Class B Stock is entitled to voting power  equivalent  to ten
shares of TCGI Class A Stock and is  convertible,  at the option of the  holder,
into one share of TCGI Class A Stock.  As a result of the TCGI IPO,  the Company
recorded  a $40.6  million  increase  in its  proportionate  share of TCGI's net
assets as a gain from equity  offering of affiliate (the "TCGI IPO Gain") in its
condensed  consolidated  statement of operations and accumulated deficit for the
six and three months ended June 30, 1996.

During the three months ended March 31, 1997, the Company  received 2.76 million
shares of TCGI Class A Stock from TCGI in exchange for the  Company's  shares of
an alternate access provider. In May 1997, the Company sold all of its shares of
TCGI Class A Stock for $68.9 million and recognized a $68.9 million pre-tax gain
(the "TCGI Class A Gain"),

which is included in investment income in its condensed  consolidated  statement
of operations  and  accumulated  deficit for the six and three months ended June
30, 1997.

As of June 30, 1997,  the Company owns TCGI Class B Stock  representing  a 19.8%
voting interest and a 15.5% equity  interest.  The Company  continues to account
for its interest in TCGI under the equity  method  based on its voting  interest
maintained through the TCGI Class B Stock, its representation on TCGI's board of
directors and its participation in a TCGI stockholder agreement granting certain
rights to a control group. Assuming conversion of the TCGI Class B Stock held by
the Company into TCGI Class A Stock, the Company's investment in TCGI, which had
a carrying value of $131.1 million as of June 30, 1997,  would have a fair value
of  approximately  $1.009 billion,  based on the quoted market price of the TCGI
Class A Stock as of July 31, 1997.

Roll-up of  Primestar's  Operations.  In June 1997,  the Company  entered into a
binding letter agreement (the "Roll-up  Agreement") with PRIMESTAR Partners L.P.
("Primestar")  and the  affiliates  of each of the other  partners of Primestar,
including TCI Satellite Entertainment, Inc. ("TSAT"), a publicly-traded company.
Primestar,  in which the Company holds a 10.4%  general and limited  partnership
interest,  is  principally  engaged in the  business of  acquiring,  originating
and/or providing television  programming services delivered by satellite through
a network of distributors,  including the Company, throughout the United States.
The  Roll-up  Agreement  sets  forth the  principal  terms and  conditions  of a
proposed  transaction (the "Roll-up  Transaction"),  through which the Company's
direct   broadcast   satellite   ("DBS")    operations,    Primestar   and   the
Primestar-related  distribution  businesses  of the other  partners of Primestar
will  be  consolidated  into  a  newly-formed   publicly-traded   company  ("New
Primestar").  In  connection  with the Roll-up  Transaction,  TSAT will become a
wholly owned  subsidiary of New  Primestar.  The Company  provided DBS services,
through a distributorship  arrangement with Primestar, to 152,000 subscribers as
of June 30, 1997.

New Primestar will acquire the Primestar partnership interests,  subscribers and
related assets,  as applicable,  of the parties to the Roll-up  Transaction,  in
exchange for (i) cash, (ii) shares of Series A Common Stock of New Primestar and
(iii)  shares  of  Series C Common  Stock of New  Primestar,  in each case in an
amount determined  pursuant to the Roll-up Agreement.  The Company will continue
to market and  support the  Primestar  programming  services on an agency  basis
after  consummation  of the  Roll-up  Transaction;  however,  the  terms of such
arrangement  have not yet  been  determined.  Under  the  terms  of the  Roll-up
Agreement,  upon closing of the Roll-up Transaction,  the Company is expected to
receive  approximately  $90 million in cash and to own  approximately 10% of New
Primestar  common  equity,  subject  to  adjustments  based  on  the  number  of
subscribers, inventory amounts and other factors. As of June 30, 1997, assets of
the Company's DBS operations totaled $138.2 million.

In June 1997,  Primestar  entered  into an agreement  with The News  Corporation
Limited,  MCI  Telecommunications  Corporation and American Sky Broadcasting LLC
("ASkyB"),  pursuant to which  Primestar (or, under certain  circumstances,  New
Primestar) will acquire certain assets relating to the high-power,  DBS business
of ASkyB. In exchange for such assets, ASkyB will receive non-voting  securities
of New Primestar that will be convertible  into  non-voting  common stock of New
Primestar and, accordingly,  will reduce the Company's common equity interest in
New Primestar to approximately 7% on a fully diluted basis.

These   transactions   are  not   conditioned   on  each  other  and  may  close
independently.  They are  expected  to close in 1998,  subject to receipt of all
necessary  governmental and regulatory approvals,  including the approval of the
Federal Communications Commission. There can be no assurance that such approvals
will be obtained.

@Home. On July 11, 1997 (the "@Home IPO Date"),  At Home Corporation  ("@Home"),
an equity method  investee of the Company,  completed an initial public offering
of its Series A Common Stock.  @Home provides Internet services to customers and
businesses  over the cable  television  infrastructure  in a  limited  number of
cities in the  United  States.  During  the third  quarter  of 1997,  due to the
dilution of the  Company's  equity and voting  interest and other  factors,  the
Company  expects  to  discontinue  the  equity  method  of  accounting  for  its
investment  in @Home.  As of the @Home IPO Date,  the Company  held 14.6 million
shares of @Home Series A Common Stock,  representing a 12.2% and 5.7% equity and
voting interest, respectively.

Nextel.  As of June 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996, the Company held 3.3 million
shares of Nextel common stock. In addition, as of December 31, 1996, the Company
held options to acquire an additional 25.0 million shares of Nextel

common stock at $16 per share. As of December 31, 1996, these options, which had
an historical  cost of $20.0  million,  were included in investments in publicly
traded  companies at their fair value of $32.6  million.  In February  1997, the
Company sold these options to Nextel for $25.0 million and  recognized a pre-tax
gain of $5.0 million,  which is included in  investment  income in its condensed
consolidated  statement of operations and accumulated deficit for the six months
ended June 30, 1997.  In July 1997,  the Company sold its 3.3 million  shares of
Nextel  common  stock for $73.4  million  resulting  in a pre-tax  gain of $32.1
million, which will be recognized in the third quarter of 1997. Accordingly,  as
of June 30, 1997, the Company's  investment in Nextel,  which is recorded at its
fair value of $62.1  million,  is  included  in  short-term  investments  in the
Company's condensed consolidated balance sheet.

In February 1996, in connection  with certain  preemptive  rights of the Company
under previously  existing  agreements with Nextel,  the Company  purchased 8.16
million  shares of Nextel common stock at $12.25 per share,  for $99.9  million.
During the three months ended June 30, 1996, the Company sold 4.4 million shares
of Nextel common stock for $85.6 million and  recognized a pre-tax gain of $29.7
million  (the  "Nextel  Gain"),  which is included in  investment  income in its
condensed  consolidated  statement of operations and accumulated deficit for the
six and three months ended June 30, 1996.

Time Warner/TBS.  The Company received 1.36 million shares of Time Warner common
stock (the "Time  Warner  Stock") in exchange  (the  "Exchange")  for all of the
shares of Turner Broadcasting  System, Inc. ("TBS") stock (the "TBS Stock") held
by the Company as a result of the merger of Time Warner and TBS in October 1996.
As a result of the  Exchange,  the Company  recognized  a pre-tax  gain of $47.3
million in the fourth quarter of 1996,  representing the difference  between the
Company's  historical  cost basis in the TBS Stock of $8.9  million  and the new
basis for the Company's investment in Time Warner Stock of $56.2 million,  which
was based on the closing  price of the Time  Warner  Stock on the merger date of
$41.375 per share.  In December 1996 and January  1997,  the Company sold 92,500
shares  and  1.27  million  shares,  respectively,  of the  Time  Warner  Stock,
representing the Company's entire interest in Time Warner,  for $3.7 million and
$48.6  million,  respectively.  In connection  with the January 1997 sales,  the
Company  recognized  a  pre-tax  loss of $3.8  million,  which  is  included  in
investment  income in its condensed  consolidated  statement of  operations  and
accumulated  deficit for the six months ended June 30, 1997.  As of December 31,
1996,  the 1.27  million  shares of Time Warner  Stock held by the Company  were
recorded at their fair value of $47.4  million and were  included in  short-term
investments in the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheet.

The Company does not have any  additional  significant  contractual  commitments
with respect to any of its investments.  However, to the extent the Company does
not fund its  investees'  capital  calls,  it exposes  itself to dilution of its
ownership interests.  The Company continually evaluates its existing investments
as well as new investment opportunities.

Financing
The Company has  historically  utilized a strategy of financing its acquisitions
through  senior debt at the  acquired  operating  subsidiary  level.  Additional
financing  has also  been  obtained  by the  Company  through  the  issuance  of
subordinated debt at the intermediate  holding company and parent company levels
and, to some extent,  through public  offerings of a subsidiary  company's stock
and debt instruments.

The Cable Refinancing and the Cellular  Refinancing had a significant  impact on
the  maturities of the Company's  long-term  debt.  Maturities of long-term debt
outstanding  as of June  30,  1997  through  2001  are as  follows  (dollars  in

On June 30, 1997, the Company  redeemed all of its outstanding 10%  Subordinated
Debentures,  due 2003 (the "10% Debentures").  An aggregate  principal amount of
$139.3 million of the 10% Debentures was redeemed at a redemption  price of 100%
of the principal amount thereof,  together with accrued interest thereon. On the
date of redemption, the 10% Debentures had an accreted value of $127.7 million.

In July 1997,  the Company made  optional  debt  repayments  aggregating  $527.0
million with existing cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments. Current
portion of long-term debt as of June 30, 1997 includes such amount.  As a result
of these debt repayments,  the Company will expense unamortized debt acquisition
costs of $3.5 million,  resulting in an extraordinary  loss, net of tax, of $2.3
million in the third quarter of 1997.

As of July 31,  1997,  certain  subsidiaries  of the Company had unused lines of
credit of $1.129 billion. The availability and use of the unused lines of credit
is restricted by the covenants of the related debt  agreements and to subsidiary
general purposes and dividend declaration. The Company continually evaluates its
debt structure with the intention of reducing its debt service requirements when
desirable.

Concurrent with the announcement of the Scripps Acquisition in October 1995, the
Company  announced  that its Board of Directors  authorized a market  repurchase
program (the "Repurchase Program") pursuant to which the Company could purchase,
at such times and on such terms as it deemed  appropriate,  up to $500.0 million
of its outstanding common equity securities, subject to certain restrictions and
market conditions. Based on the trade date for stock repurchases, during the six
and three  months  ended June 30,  1997 and 1996,  the Company  repurchased  2.3
million shares,  6.5 million shares,  1.6 million shares and 3.3 million shares,
respectively,  of its common stock for aggregate consideration of $36.2 million,
$116.6 million, $24.7 million and $59.9 million,  respectively,  pursuant to the
Repurchase Program.  During the term of the Repurchase Program, which terminated
on May 13, 1997,  the Company  repurchased a total of 13.5 million shares of its
common stock for aggregate consideration of $228.6 million.

As part of the Repurchase Program, the Company sold put options on shares of its
Class A Special Stock.  Put options on 4.0 million  shares,  sold by the Company
during 1996 and 1995 and outstanding at December 31, 1996,  expired  unexercised
during the first  quarter of 1997.  Upon  expiration,  the Company  reclassified
$69.6 million, the amount it would have been obligated to pay to repurchase such
shares had the put options  been  exercised,  from common  equity put options to
additional capital in the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheet.

As part of the Repurchase  Program,  in April 1997, the Company sold put options
on 2.0 million  shares of its Class A Special  Stock.  The put options  give the
holder the right to require the Company to repurchase such shares at a specified
price on specific  dates in April and May 1998.  The amount the Company would be
obligated  to pay to  repurchase  such shares upon  exercise of the put options,
totaling $31.4 million,  has been reclassified from additional capital to common
equity put options in the Company's June 30, 1997 condensed consolidated balance
sheet.

                            -------------------------

Following  the Scripps  Acquisition,  the Company no longer had a  stockholders'
deficiency.  However,  the Company expects to continue to recognize  significant
losses for the  foreseeable  future,  resulting in  decreases  in  stockholders'
equity.   The   telecommunications   industry,   including  cable  and  cellular
communications,   and  the  electronic   retailing   industry  are  experiencing
increasing  competition and rapid  technological  changes.  The Company's future
results of operations will be affected by its ability to react to changes in the
competitive  environment  and by its  ability  to  implement  new  technologies.
However,  the Company believes that competition,  technological  changes and its
significant  losses  will  not  significantly   affect  its  ability  to  obtain
financing.

The Company  believes  that it will be able to meet its  current  and  long-term
liquidity and capital  requirements,  including fixed charges,  through its cash
flows from operating  activities,  existing cash, cash  equivalents,  short-term
investments and lines of credit and other external financing.

Statement of Cash Flows

Cash and cash  equivalents  increased  $933.3  million as of June 30,  1997 from
December 31, 1996 and decreased $131.4 million as of June 30, 1996 from December
31, 1995.  Changes in cash and cash  equivalents  resulted  from cash flows from
operating, financing and investing activities which are explained below.

Net cash provided by operating  activities amounted to $436.4 million and $289.2
million  for the six months  ended  June 30,  1997 and 1996,  respectively.  The
increase of $147.2 million is  principally  due to the increase in the Company's
operating  income  before   depreciation  and  amortization   (see  "Results  of
Operations"),  including the effects of the Scripps Acquisition,  and changes in
working capital as a result of the timing of receipts and disbursements.

Net cash  provided  by (used in)  financing  activities  was $924.7  million and
($42.8)  million for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996,  respectively.
During the six months ended June 30, 1997, the Company  borrowed $2.958 billion,
including  the  Cable  Notes of $1.691  billion,  the  Cellular  Notes of $998.4
million,  the Disney Notes of $132.8 million and  borrowings  under its existing
lines of credit,  and repaid  $2.940  billion of its long-term  debt,  including
$1.665 billion relating to the Cable Refinancing, $981.8 million relating to the
Cellular  Refinancing  and $139.3 million  relating to the redemption of the 10%
Debentures.  Deferred  financing costs of $43.2 million were incurred during the
six months  ended June 30, 1997  related to the  issuance of the Cable Notes and
the Cellular Notes. In addition,  during the six months ended June 30, 1997, the
Company  received  $1.0 billion from  Microsoft  for the issuance of its Class A
Special Stock and Series B Preferred Stock and repurchased  $33.6 million of its
common stock.  During the six months ended June 30, 1996,  the Company  borrowed
$558.3  million under its existing  lines of credit and repaid  $478.3  million,
including the effects of  refinancings  and $88.9 million of repayments  under a
vendor  financing  arrangement.  In  addition,  the Company  repurchased  $108.3
million of its common stock during the six months ended June 30, 1996.

Net cash used in investing  activities was $427.8 million and $377.8 million for
the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively. During the six months
ended June 30,  1997,  net cash used in  investing  activities  includes  the E!
Acquisition,  net of cash acquired, of $118.7 million, investments in affiliates
of $78.5  million  and capital  expenditures  of $447.1  million,  offset by the
proceeds  from  the  sales  of  short-term  and  long-term   investments  and  a
distribution  from an investee of $222.9  million and Sprint PCS' repayment of a
$25.2 million loan.  During the six months ended June 30, 1996, net cash used in
investing  activities  includes  investments  in affiliates  of $357.4  million,
including   $125.0   million  for  the   purchase  of  the  Sixers  and  capital
contributions to Sprint PCS of $69.3 million, and capital expenditures of $278.9
million,  offset  by  proceeds  from  the  sales  of  short-term  and  long-term
investments of $328.4 million.

Results of Operations

The effects of the Company's recent acquisitions, as well as increased levels of
capital expenditures,  were to increase significantly the Company's revenues and
expenses  resulting in  substantial  increases in its  operating  income  before
depreciation and amortization,  depreciation  expense,  amortization expense and
interest expense. In addition,  the Company's equity in net losses of affiliates
has increased  principally as a result of the start-up  nature of certain of the
Company's  equity  investees (see  "Operating  Results by Business  Segment" and
"Consolidated  Analysis"). As a result of the increases in depreciation expense,
amortization  expense,  interest expense and equity in net losses of affiliates,
it is expected  that the Company will continue to recognize  significant  losses
for the foreseeable future.

(1)   Operating income before depreciation and amortization is commonly referred
      to in the Company's  businesses as "operating  cash flow."  Operating cash
      flow is a measure of a company's  ability to generate  cash to service its
      obligations,  including debt service  obligations,  and to finance capital
      and other expenditures. In part due to the capital intensive nature of the
      Company's  businesses  and the  resulting  significant  level of  non-cash
      depreciation  expense and  amortization  expense,  operating  cash flow is
      frequently  used  as one of the  bases  for  comparing  businesses  in the
      Company's  industries.  Operating  cash flow does not purport to represent
      net income or net cash  provided by operating  activities,  as those terms
      are defined under generally accepted accounting principles, and

Of the  respective  $92.8 million and $49.0 million  increases in service income
for the six and three month  periods from 1996 to 1997,  $19.6  million and $9.6
million are attributable to subscriber  growth,  $61.3 million and $29.3 million
relate to changes in rates and $11.9 million and $10.1  million  relate to other
product offerings.

Of the  respective  $65.8  million and $35.6  million  increases  in  operating,
selling, general and administrative expenses for the six and three month periods
from 1996 to 1997,  $17.1 million and $9.5 million are attributable to increases
in the costs of cable programming as a result of subscriber  growth,  additional
channel  offerings  and changes in rates,  $11.1  million  and $5.1  million are
attributable to increases in costs  associated  with customer  service and $37.6
million and $21.0  million  result from  increases  in the cost of labor,  other
volume related expenses and costs associated with new product  offerings.  It is
anticipated  that the Company's cost of cable  programming  will increase in the
future as cable  programming  rates  increase  and  additional  sources of cable
programming become available.

</TABLE>

The respective increases in net sales from electronic retailing of $91.6 million
and $62.0  million  for the six and three  month  periods  from 1996 to 1997 are
primarily  attributable  to the effects of a 7.1% increase during each period in
the average  number of homes  receiving  QVC  services in the United  States and
13.7%  and  13.5%  increases,  respectively,  in the  average  number  of  homes
receiving QVC services in the United Kingdom.

The  increases in cost of goods sold from  electronic  retailing  are  primarily
related to the growth in net sales. The changes in gross margin from 1996 to the
same  period in 1997 are a result of changes in product  mix and an  increase in
shipping and handling costs.

Of the respective  increases in operating,  selling,  general and administrative
expenses of $18.8  million and $17.7 million for the six and three month periods
from 1996 to 1997, $13.6 million and $7.3 million are primarily  attributable to
start-up costs incurred by QVC in Germany,  which began operations in the fourth
quarter of 1996.  The remaining  increases of $5.2 million and $10.4 million are
primarily  attributable to higher sales volume offset, in part, by the reduction
in expenses realized upon consolidation of QVC's multichannel  operations and an
increase in net finance fee income from credit card operations for the six month
period from 1996 to 1997.

Of the respective $13.2 million and $7.3 million increases in service income for
the six and three  month  periods  from  1996 to 1997,  $14.6  million  and $6.1
million are attributable to the Company's subscriber growth and $7.3 million and
$4.9 million are  attributable to roamer growth.  Offsetting these increases are
decreases of $8.7 million and $3.7 million resulting  primarily from a reduction
in the  average  rate  per  minute  of use and the  average  minutes  of use per
subscriber from 1996 to the same periods in 1997.

The respective  $4.3 million and $1.0 million  decreases in operating,  selling,
general and  administrative  expenses  for the six and three month  periods from
1996 to 1997 are primarily  attributable to expense reductions  achieved through
implementation of fraud management  programs and a reduction in commission costs
resulting  from fewer gross  sales in 1997 as  compared  to the same  periods in
1996.  These  reductions  were  partially  offset by increases in volume related
expenses resulting from subscriber growth.

Consolidated Analysis

The respective $78.8 million and $51.4 million increases in depreciation expense
for the six and three month periods from 1996 to 1997 are primarily attributable
to  the  effects  of  the  Scripps   Acquisition  and  the  effects  of  capital
expenditures.

The respective $59.3 million and $31.2 million increases in amortization expense
for the six and three month periods from 1996 to 1997 are primarily attributable
to the effects of the Scripps Acquisition.

The respective $10.9 million and $12.4 million increases in interest expense for
the six and three month periods from 1996 to 1997 are  attributable to increased
levels of debt and changes in the Company's  weighted average interest rate. The
Company anticipates that, for the foreseeable future, interest expense will be a
significant  cost to the Company and will have a significant  adverse  effect on
the  Company's  ability to realize net  earnings.  The Company  believes it will
continue to be able to meet its obligations through its ability both to generate
operating  income before  depreciation  and  amortization and to obtain external
financing.

                           QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 1997

The respective  $41.1 million and $47.5 million  increases in investment  income
for the six and three month periods from 1996 to 1997 are primarily attributable
to the  TCGI  Class  A Gain  recognized  in  1997,  offset  by the  Nextel  Gain
recognized in 1996.

The respective $65.9 million and $30.3 million increases in equity in net losses
of  affiliates  for  the six and  three  month  periods  from  1996 to 1997  are
primarily  due to the effects of increased  losses  incurred by Sprint PCS, TCGI
and certain of the Company's other equity  investees,  and the effects of the E!
Acquisition (see below) and the Sports Venture Acquisition. Based on Sprint PCS'
current  operations  and  business  plan,  the  Company   anticipates  that  its
proportionate share of Sprint PCS' losses will be significant in future periods.
In addition,  as a result of the E!  Acquisition,  the Company recorded a charge
representing the cumulative amount that would have been recorded had the Company
accounted for its investment in E!  Entertainment  under the equity method since
the date of initial  investment (the "Cumulative  Charge").  Since the Company's
proportionate share of E! Entertainment's cumulative losses was in excess of the
Company's historical cost basis in E! Entertainment and as the Company was under
no contractual obligation to fund the losses of E! Entertainment, the Cumulative
Charge was limited to the Company's historical cost basis of $12.1 million. Such
amount is  included  in equity in net  losses  of  affiliates  in the  Company's
condensed  consolidated  statement of operations and accumulated deficit for the
six months ended June 30, 1997 as it is not  significant  for restatement of the
Company's prior year financial statements.

Gain from equity  offering of affiliate  for the six and three months ended June
30, 1996 represents the TCGI IPO Gain.

The respective  $18.5 million and $16.1 million  decreases in other expenses for
the six and three month periods from 1996 to 1997 are primarily  attributable to
the settlement of certain litigation during the six months ended June 30, 1996.

The $12.3  million  increase in income tax expense for the six month period from
1996 to 1997 is  primarily a result of an  increase in state  income tax expense
due to  increases  in the net income of certain of the  Company's  subsidiaries,
increases  in  non-deductible  foreign  losses  and  equity  in  net  losses  of
affiliates  and  increased  goodwill  amortization  resulting  from the  Scripps
Acquisition,  offset by the effect of the increase in the Company's  loss before
income tax expense, minority interest and extraordinary items.

The $10.8  million  increase in minority  interest for the six month period from
1996 to 1997 is  primarily  attributable  to the  effects  of changes in the net
income (loss) of QVC and Comcast UK Cable.

In  connection  with the Cable  Refinancing,  the Cellular  Refinancing  and the
redemption  of  the  10%  Debentures,  the  Company  expensed  unamortized  debt
acquisition  costs and  incurred  debt  extinguishment  costs of $35.1  million,
resulting in an  extraordinary  loss,  net of tax, of $22.8 million or $0.07 per
common share during the six and three months ended June 30, 1997.

For the six and  three  months  ended  June 30,  1997 and  1996,  the  Company's
distribution from an investee and earnings before  extraordinary  items,  income
tax expense,  equity in net losses of  affiliates  and fixed  charges  (interest
expense) were $364.5 million, $336.1 million, $214.1 million and $200.5 million,
respectively.  Such earnings were adequate to cover the Company's fixed charges,
including interest  capitalized of $18.0 million,  $14.7 million,  $9.4 million,
and $7.6 million, of $296.9 million,  $282.7 million,  $155.0 million and $140.8
million for the six and three months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively.
Fixed charges include non-cash interest expense, net of interest capitalized, of
$28.9 million,  $32.2  million,  $11.9 million and $16.1 million for the six and
three months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively.

The  Company  believes  that  its  losses  will  not  significantly  affect  the
performance of its normal business activities because of its existing cash, cash
equivalents and short-term investments, its ability to generate operating income
before  depreciation  and  amortization  and  its  ability  to  obtain  external
financing.

The  Company  believes  that  its  operations  are not  materially  affected  by
inflation.

PART II.       OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.        LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

      The  Company  is not party to  litigation  which,  in the  opinion  of the
      Company's management, will have a material adverse effect on the Company's
      financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

ITEM 2.        CHANGES IN SECURITIES

      On June  30,  1997  (the  "Issuance  Date"),  the  Company  and  Microsoft
      Corporation  ("Microsoft")  completed  a  Stock  Purchase  Agreement  (the
      "Agreement")  under which Microsoft  purchased and the Company issued 24.6
      million shares of the Company's  Class A Special  Common Stock,  par value
      $1.00 per share (the "Class A Special  Stock"),  at $20.29 per share,  for
      $500.0  million and 500,000  shares of the  Company's  newly  issued 5.25%
      Series B Mandatorily  Redeemable  Convertible  Preferred  Stock, par value
      $1,000 per share (the "Series B Preferred Stock"), for $500.0 million.

      The Series B  Preferred  Stock has a 5.25%  pay-in-kind  annual  dividend.
      Dividends will be paid quarterly through the issuance of additional shares
      of  Series  B  Preferred  Stock  (the  "Additional  Shares")  and  will be
      cumulative from the Issuance Date (except that dividends on the Additional
      Shares will accrue from the date such Additional  Shares are issued).  The
      Series B Preferred Stock, including the Additional Shares, is convertible,
      at the option of  Microsoft,  into 21.2 million  shares of Class A Special
      Stock,  subject to  adjustment  in certain  limited  circumstances,  which
      equals an initial  conversion  price of $23.54 per share,  increasing as a
      result of the Additional  Shares to $33.91 per share on June 30, 2004. The
      Series B Preferred  Stock is mandatorily  redeemable on June 30, 2017, or,
      at the option of the Company  beginning  on June 30, 2004 or at the option
      of Microsoft on June 30, 2004 or on June 30, 2012.  Upon  redemption,  the
      Company, at its option, may redeem the Series B Preferred Stock with cash,
      Class A Special Stock or a combination  thereof.  As the Company currently
      intends to redeem the Series B Preferred  Stock with Class A Special Stock
      upon  redemption,  the Series B Preferred  Stock has been  classified as a
      component  of  stockholders'  equity  as of June 30,  1997.  The  Series B
      Preferred Stock is generally non-voting.

      The Class A Special Stock and the Series B Preferred  Stock were issued to
      Microsoft in a transaction exempt from the Securities Act of 1933 pursuant
      to Section 4(2) thereof.

ITEM 4.        SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS
