$108,000,000.00                               Coudersport, Pennsylvania

     FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned FT. MYERS ACQUISITION LIMITED
PARTNERSHIP, a Delaware limited partnership (herein called the "Maker"), hereby
promises to pay to OLYMPUS COMMUNICATIONS, L.P. (together with any subsequent
holder hereof, the "Holder") the principal sum of One Hundred Eight Million U.S.
Dollars (U.S. $108,000,000.00), together with interest on the unpaid principal
balance hereof from and after September 1, 1999 until this Term Note (this
"Note") has been paid in full at the rates hereinafter set forth, which
principal and accrued interest shall be due and payable to the Holder on
September 1, 2004 (the "Maturity Date") unless such amounts shall become due and
payable on an earlier date as hereinafter provided.

     Interest shall accrue on the outstanding principal amount of this Note at a
rate of six percent (6%) compounded annually commencing on the date hereof
through the Maturity Date and shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date
except as hereinafter provided.

     Holder, at its option, may with at least sixty (60) days' prior written
notice to Maker require prepayment by Maker of the outstanding principal amount
of this Note together with accrued interest on such amount on or after July 1,
2002 (the "Call Date"), and upon such payment, this Note shall automatically be
of no further force and effect.

     If any payment of principal or interest on this Note shall become due on a
Saturday, Sunday or on any other day on which the Holder is not open for
business, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding business day and
such extension of time shall in such case be included in computing interest in
connection with such payment.

     Maker, at its option, may prepay the outstanding principal amount of this
Note, in whole or in part, at any time, together with accrued interest thereon,
at any time or from time to time.

     Maker shall be in default under this Note upon the happening of any of the
following events of default (each an "Event of Default"):

        (a) default in the payment when due of the principal of or interest on
this Note; or

        (b) any representation or warranty made by any guarantor of this Note
or other person (other than Maker) providing security for this Note (any such
person being hereinafter referred to as an "Accommodation Party") pursuant to
any such guaranty agreement or security
<PAGE>

agreement (any such agreement being hereinafter referred to as an
"Accommodation Agreement") shall prove to have been incorrect in any material
respect; or

        (c) there shall occur any default in the due observance or performance
of any material covenant, condition or agreement on the part of any
Accommodation Party to be observed or performed pursuant to the terms of any
Accommodation Agreement after giving effect to any applicable period of grace
set forth therein; or

        (d) a proceeding shall have been instituted in a court having
jurisdiction in the premises seeking a decree or order for relief in respect
of the Maker or any Accommodation Party in an involuntary case under any
applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law now or
hereafter in effect, or for the appointment of a receiver, liquidator,
assignee, custodian, trustee, sequestrator, conservator (or similar official)
of the Maker or any Accommodation Party for any substantial part of their
respective properties, or for the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs,
and such proceeding shall remain undismissed or unstayed and in effect for a
period of ninety (90) consecutive days or such court shall enter a decree or
order granting any of the relief sought in such proceeding; or

        (e) the Maker or any Accommodation Party shall commence a voluntary
case under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other
similar law now or hereafter in effect, shall consent to the entry of an order
for relief in an involuntary case under any such law, or shall consent to the
appointment or taking possession by a receiver, liquidator, assignee,
custodian, trustee, sequestrator, conservator (or other similar official) of
itself or for any substantial part of their respective properties or shall
make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, or shall fail
generally to pay its debts as they become due, or shall take any action in
furtherance of any of the foregoing; or

        (f) the failure of Adelphia Communications Corporation, a Delaware
     corporation ("Adelphia") to own, directly or indirectly, 51% or more of
     the partnership interests in the Maker; or

        (g) the failure of Adelphia to own, directly or indirectly, the
general partner interest in the Maker.

     Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Holder may declare the
outstanding principal amount of this Note, together with all accrued and unpaid
interest thereon to be immediately due and payable and the same shall thereupon
become immediately due and payable without any further action on part of Holder.

     If the principal of this Note or any portion hereof and, to the extent
permitted by law, interest hereon shall not be paid when due, whether by
acceleration or otherwise, the same shall bear interest for any period during
which the same shall be overdue at a rate per annum equal to the Default Rate,
and payable on demand.  "Default Rate" means a variable rate equal to the Libor
Rate from time to time in effect plus five percent (5%) per annum.  "Libor Rate"
shall mean the London Interbank Offered Rate for three month dollar deposits in
the London market as published in The Wall Street Journal from time to time; the
applicable Libor Rate shall be determined based upon the Libor Rate as published
on the last publication date for The Wall Street Journal in each March, June,
September and December and shall continue as the applicable

                                      -2-
<PAGE>

Libor Rate for the next full three-month period after each determination is
made. If for any reason the Libor Rate is no longer published in The Wall
Street Journal, the Holder and the Maker shall in good faith seek to select a
comparable source for determining the Libor Rate and the Libor Rate shall
thereafter be determined based upon the rate quoted in such comparable source.
If the Holder and the Maker are unable to agree upon a comparable source for
determining the Libor Rate within thirty (30) days following the date that the
Libor Rate is no longer published in The Wall Street Journal, the Holder may
designate the source for determining the Libor Rate by written notice to the
Maker.

     Anything in this Note to the contrary notwithstanding, the obligations of
the Maker under this Note to the Holder shall be subject to the limitation that
payments of interest to any Holder shall not be required to the extent that
receipt of any such payment by such Holder would be contrary to provisions of
law applicable to such Holder (if any) which limit the maximum rate of interest
which may be charged or collected by such Holder; provided, however, that
nothing herein shall be construed to limit the Holder to presently existing
maximum rates of interest, if an increased interest rate is hereafter permitted
by reason of applicable federal or state legislation.  In the event that the
Maker makes any payment of interest, fees or other charges, however denominated,
pursuant to this Note, which payment results in the interest paid by the Maker
to any Holder to exceed the maximum rate of interest permitted by applicable
law, any excess over such maximum shall be applied in reduction of the principal
balance owed to such Holder as of the date of such payment, or if such excess
exceeds the amount of principal owed to such Holder as of the date of such
payment, the difference shall be paid by such Holder to the Maker.

     Except as expressly provided herein, the Maker waives presentment, demand,
notice, protest and all other demands and notices in connection with the
delivery, acceptance, performance, default or enforcement of this Note.

     This Note shall bind the Maker and its successors and assigns, and the
benefits hereof shall inure to the benefit of the Holder and its successors and
assigns.  All references herein to the "Maker" and the "Holder" shall be deemed
to apply to the Maker and the Holder, respectively, and their respective
successors and assigns.

     This Note and any other documents delivered in connection herewith and the
rights and obligations of the parties hereto and thereto shall for all purposes
be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws
of the State of Florida without giving effect to its conflicts of law
principles.

     The Maker agrees that any suit, action or proceeding against the Maker with
respect to this Note or any judgment entered by any court in respect of any
thereof may be brought in the courts of the State of Florida located in Palm
Beach County, Florida or in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of
Florida as the Holder may elect, and the Maker hereby accepts the nonexclusive
jurisdiction of those courts for the purpose of any suit, action or proceeding.
In addition, the Maker hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying
of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this
Note or any judgment entered by any court in respect of any thereof brought in
Palm Beach County, Florida or in the U.S. District Court for the

                                      -3-
<PAGE>

Southern District of Florida, and hereby further irrevocably waives any claim
that any suit, action or proceeding brought in the Palm Beach County, Florida
or in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida has been
brought in an inconvenient forum. The Maker hereby further agrees that if any
such suit, action or proceeding is pending in more than one jurisdiction, the
Holder's selection of the forum shall be binding upon the parties hereto.

     Each notice or other communication hereunder required to be given to Maker
hereunder shall be in writing, shall be sent by messenger (including by air
courier), by first class mail or by facsimile transmitter ("telecopy"), and
shall be deemed to have been given or made on the third business day after the
deposit thereof in the United States mail, registered or certified mail, postage
prepaid, or when received if sent by telecopy (if an original copy is sent on
the same day by one of the other means of delivery set forth herein) or
delivered by hand, addressed to the Maker at the address set forth on the
signature page hereof until notice of a change thereof has been delivered to the
Holder and acknowledged in writing by the Holder.

     THE MAKER HEREBY, AND THE HOLDER BY ITS ACCEPTANCE OF THIS NOTE, KNOWINGLY,
VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE THE RIGHT EITHER MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY
IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION BASED HEREON, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN
CONNECTION WITH THIS NOTE AND ANY AGREEMENT CONTEMPLATED TO BE EXECUTED IN
CONJUNCTION HEREWITH, OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENTS
(WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF EITHER PARTY.
