KNOLOGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

AS OF AND FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2010

(UNAUDITED)

(DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE DATA)

1. ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS

Knology, Inc. and its subsidiaries, including its
predecessors (Knology or the Company), is a publicly traded company incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware in September 1998.

Knology owns and operates an advanced interactive broadband network and provides residential and business customers broadband communications services, including analog and digital cable television, local
and long-distance telephone, high-speed Internet access, and broadband carrier services to various markets in the Southeastern and Midwestern United States. Certain subsidiaries are subject to regulation by state public service commissions of
applicable states for intrastate telecommunications services. For applicable interstate matters related to telephone service, certain subsidiaries are subject to regulation by the Federal Communications Commission.

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The
accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of the Company and all of its subsidiaries. The information included in the condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2009 has
been derived from audited financial statements. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted (GAAP) in the United States for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management,
all normally recurring adjustments considered necessary for the fair presentation of the financial statements have been included, and the financial statements present fairly the financial position and results of operations for the interim periods
presented. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, together with managements discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations contained in
the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009. The Company operates as one operating segment.

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and
expenses during the reporting period. On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including those related to collectability of accounts receivable, valuation of investments, valuation of stock based compensation, useful lives of
property, plant and equipment, recoverability of goodwill and intangible assets, income taxes and contingencies. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the
circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions
or conditions. These changes in estimates are recognized in the period they are realized.

RECENTLY ADOPTED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In February 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the FASB) issued new accounting guidance that amends and
establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. The new guidance is effective for interim and annual financial
periods ending after February 24, 2010. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Companys results of operations or financial position.

In January 2010, the FASB issued new accounting guidance that improves fair value measurement disclosures by requiring new disclosures about transfers into and out of levels of the fair value hierarchy.
It also requires separate disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements related to the fair value hierarchy. The new guidance is effective for interim and annual financial periods beginning after December 15, 2009. The adoption
of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Companys results of operations or financial position.

##### Table of Contents



In June 2009, the FASB issued new
accounting guidance that improves financial reporting by enterprises involved with variable interest entities. The new guidance is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009. The adoption of
this guidance did not have a material impact on the Companys results of operations or financial position.

In June 2009, the FASB issued
new accounting guidance that improves and defines the information that a reporting entity provides in its financial statements about a transfer of financial assets; the effects of a transfer on its financial position, financial performance, and cash
flows; and a transferors continuing involvement, if any, in transferred financial assets. The new guidance is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009. The adoption of this guidance did
not have a material impact on the Companys results of operations or financial position.

In April 2009, the FASB issued new accounting
guidance related to disclosures about the fair values of financial instruments for interim reporting periods of publicly traded companies as well as in annual financial statements. The new guidance also amends previous accounting literature to
require those disclosures in summarized financial information at interim reporting periods. This guidance is effective for interim reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for periods ending after
March 15, 2009. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Companys results of operations or financial position.

In April 2009, the FASB issued new accounting guidance related to estimating fair value in accordance with previous accounting literature when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability
have significantly decreased. The new guidance also relates to identifying circumstances that indicate if a transaction is not orderly (i.e., a forced liquidation or distressed sale). This guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting
periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Companys results of operations or financial position.

4. CASH

Cash

Cash and cash equivalents are highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase and consist of
time deposits and investment in money market accounts with commercial banks and financial institutions. At times throughout the year and at quarter-end, cash balances held at financial institutions were in excess of federally insured limits.

Restricted Cash

Restricted
cash is presented as a current asset since the associated maturity dates expire within one year of the balance sheet date. At December 31, 2009 and September 30, 2010, the Company has $725 and $1,401, respectively, of cash that is
restricted in use, all of which the Company has pledged as collateral related to certain insurance, franchise and surety bond agreements.

5. SHORT TERM INVESTMENTS

Certificates Of Deposit

Certificates of
deposit are short-term investments with original maturities of more than three months and up to twelve months.

Other Short Term
Investments

Other short term investments consist of U.S. Treasury Bills with original maturities of twelve months that are classified as
available for sale securities.

6. GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

The Company performs a goodwill impairment test in accordance with the FASBs accounting guidance annually as of January 1. There was no impairment identified as a result of the January 1,
2010 impairment test, nor has there been any event in the nine months ended September 30, 2010 that indicated a need for reassessment.

7. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

On April 18, 2007, the Company entered into an interest rate swap contract to mitigate interest rate risk on an initial notional
amount of $555,000 in connection with the term loan associated with the acquisition of PrairieWave Holdings, Inc. (PrairieWave). The swap agreement became effective on May 3, 2007 and ended on July 3, 2010.

On December 19, 2007, the Company entered into a second interest rate swap contract to mitigate interest rate risk on an initial notional amount of
$59,000, amortizing 1% annually, in connection with the incremental term loan incurred in connection with the acquisition of Graceba Total Communications Group, Inc. (Graceba). The swap agreement became effective on January 4, 2008
and ended on September 30, 2010.

Until December 31, 2008, the Company matched 3-month LIBOR rates on the term loans and the
interest rate swaps, creating effective hedges under the FASBs guidance on accounting for derivative instruments and hedging activities. Due to a significant difference between the 1-month and 3-month LIBOR rates, the Company decided to reset
the borrowing rate on the debt using 1-month LIBOR.



| |  |  | On December 31, 2008, the Company reset the borrowing rate on the $59,000 term loan to 1-month LIBOR (although this became an ineffective
hedge under the FASBs accounting guidance, there was no material effect on the Companys financial results for the one day in 2008).
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | On January 2, 2009, the Company reset the borrowing rate on the $555,000 term loan to 1-month LIBOR.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The Company will determine LIBOR rates on future reset dates based on prevailing conditions at the time.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As a result of the LIBOR rates on the term loans (1-month LIBOR) not matching the LIBOR rate on the interest rate swaps (3-month LIBOR), the Company is
no longer eligible for hedge accounting related to the interest rate swaps associated with both of these loans.

Until the December 31,
2008 reset of the borrowing rate on the $59,000 term loan, changes in the fair value of the Companys swap agreements were recorded as Accumulated other comprehensive loss in the equity section of the balance sheet, and the swap in
variable to fixed interest rate was recorded as Interest expense on the statement of operations when the interest was incurred. Starting with the reset of the borrowing rate on December 31, 2008, changes in the fair value of the
interest rate swaps are recorded as Gain (loss) on interest rate swaps in the Other income (expense) section of the statement of operations as they are incurred. The remaining balance in Accumulated other comprehensive
loss in the stockholders equity section of the balance sheet that is related to the interest rate swaps is amortized as Amortization of deferred loss on interest rate swaps on the statement of operations over the remaining
life of the derivative instruments. The Company recorded amortization expense related to the deferred loss on interest rate swaps in the amounts of $4,533 and $13,846 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009. The Company also
recorded amortization expense related to the deferred loss on interest rate swaps in the amounts of $451 and $10,324 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010. As of September 30, 2010, the entire remaining amount in
accumulated other comprehensive loss related to these interest rate swaps has been amortized.

On November 25, 2009, the Company entered
into a third interest rate swap contract to mitigate interest rate risk on an initial notional amount of $400,000. The swap agreement, which became effective July 3, 2010 and ends April 3, 2012, fixes $400,000 of the floating rate debt at

As with the previous two interest rate swaps,
this interest rate instrument is not designated as a hedge and therefore does not utilize hedge accounting. Changes in the fair value of the swap agreement are recorded as Gain (loss) on interest rate swaps in the Other income
(expense) section of the statement of operations and the swap in variable to fixed interest rate is recorded as Interest expense on the statement of operations when the interest is incurred.

The Company recorded a gain on the change in the fair value of the interest rate swaps in the amounts of $2,796 and $6,545 for the three and nine months
ended September 30, 2009. The Company also recorded a gain (loss) on the change in the fair value of the interest rate swaps in the amounts of $(651) and $8,144 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010.

The interest rate swaps are valued by an independent third party. An error occurred due to a misinterpretation of the valuation information,
specifically related to the inclusion of accrued interest in the third party valuation as well as separately accruing interest payable. The correction of the error in the valuation of the derivative resulted in a credit to other income in the amount
of $4,163 in the second quarter of 2010. Further, the Company would have recognized $3,524 less charge to expense from the change in derivative

value during the first quarter of 2009 had the interest rate swaps been recorded correctly. The effect over all other quarters in 2009 was approximately $783. The Company believes the correction
of this non-cash item is immaterial to the users of our financial statements as it has no impact on total revenue; Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA); net operating income and cash flows for the
periods affected, and these are key metrics used by analysts, lenders and other users of our financial statements in evaluating the Companys performance. Therefore no restatement of prior period financial statements is deemed
necessary. The correction has no impact on the statement of operations prior to January 1, 2009.

8. DEBT

On March 14, 2007, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the Credit Agreement) that provides for a $580,000
credit facility, consisting of a $555,000 term loan (the Initial Term Loan) and a $25,000 revolving credit facility. On April 3, 2007, the Company received proceeds of $555,000 to fund the $255,000 PrairieWave acquisition purchase
price, refinance the Companys existing first and second term loans, and pay transaction costs associated with the transactions. This term loan bears interest at LIBOR plus 2.25% and is payable quarterly, with a June 30, 2012 maturity
date. Prior to Amendment No. 2 discussed below, this term loan originally amortized at a rate of 1% per annum.

On January 4,
2008, the Company entered into a First Amendment to the Credit Agreement which provides for a $59,000 incremental term loan (the First Amendment Incremental Term Loan) used to fund in part the $75,000 Graceba acquisition purchase price.
This term loan bears interest at LIBOR plus 2.75% and is payable quarterly, with a June 30, 2012 maturity date. Prior to Amendment No. 2 discussed below, this term loan originally amortized at a rate of 1% per annum.

On September 28, 2009, the Company entered into Amendment No. 2 to the Credit Agreement (Amendment No. 2) which extends the
maturity date of an aggregate $399,000 of existing term loans under the Credit Agreement by two years (the Extended Term Loan). The Extended Term Loan bears interest at LIBOR plus 3.50% and amortizes at a rate of 1% per annum,
payable quarterly, with a June 30, 2014 maturity date. Amendment No. 2 also, among other modifications, increases the revolving credit facility to $35,000 from $25,000 and allows for an annual, cumulative restricted payment allowance
of $10,000 for dividends and/or share repurchases utilizing excess cash flow and subject to a maximum leverage test.

Long-term debt at
December 31, 2009 and September 30, 2010 consisted of the following:

Knologys entry into the $770,000 first lien credit facility on October 15, 2010 (see Note 13-Subsequent Events)
relieved the Companys requirement to submit a compliance certificate in relation to its debt covenants on the credit facility existing at September 30, 2010. Similar covenants exist on our new first lien credit facility.

9. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company adopted the required provisions of the FASBs accounting guidance pertaining to the valuation of financial instruments on January 1,
2008. This guidance defines fair value, expands related disclosure requirements and specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on the nature of the inputs used to develop the fair value measures. Fair value is defined as the price that
would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The FASB accounting guidance establishes a three-tier fair value of hierarchy, which prioritizes the
inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:



| |  |  | Level 1  Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Level 2  Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities,
quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Level 3  Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity, which require management judgment or estimation.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are summarized below:

The Company used a discounted cash flow analysis applied to the LIBOR forward yield curve to value the interest rate swaps
on its balance sheet at September 30, 2010.

The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, certificates of deposit, accounts
receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities are reasonable estimates of their fair values due to the short maturity of these financial instruments.

The Company recorded in accumulated
other comprehensive income unrealized gain (loss) on other short term investments (all U.S. Treasury bills) in the amounts of ($2) and $15 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, respectively. There was no other-than-temporary
impairment for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010.

The estimated fair value of the Companys variable-rate debt is
subject to the effects of interest rate risk. On September 30, 2010, the estimated fair value of that debt, based on a dealer quote considering current market rates, approximated the carrying value of $575,221.

10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The Company is subject
to litigation in the normal course of its business. However, in the Companys opinion, there is no legal proceeding pending against it that would have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations or liquidity. The
Company is also a party to regulatory proceedings affecting the segments of the communications industry generally in which it engages in business.

UNUSED LETTERS OF CREDIT

The Companys unused letters of credit for vendors and
suppliers was $2,012 as of September 30, 2010, which reduces the funds available under the $35,000 five year senior secured revolving loan and letter of credit facility.

11. NONCASH COMPENSATION EXPENSE

The Company utilizes the recognition provisions of the
related FASB accounting guidance, which requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the financial statements based on their fair values as the options vest. The fair value of stock
options is estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. There have been no changes in the methodology for calculating the expense since the filing of the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2009.

During the third quarter of 2010, the Company granted employees options to purchase 5,715 shares of common stock with
a market value of $69. These options vest equally over the next four years. The Company recognized stock-based compensation of $1,563 and $4,615 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, respectively, and $1,500 and $4,441 for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, respectively.

12. INCOME TAXES

On January 1, 2007, the Company adopted the provisions of the appropriate FASB accounting guidance in accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. The
guidance addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Also, the Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it
is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position should be measured
based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The accounting literature also provides further guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties on income
taxes, accounting in interim periods and requires increased disclosures. Since the date of adoption, the Company has not recorded a liability for unrecognized tax benefits at any time.

The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense (as applicable). As of September 30, 2010, the Company made no provisions for interest or
penalties related to uncertain tax positions.

The Company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and
various state jurisdictions. For federal tax purposes, the Companys 2006 through 2009 tax years remain open for examination by the tax authorities under the normal three year statute of limitations. Generally, for state tax purposes, the
Companys 2006 through 2009 tax years remain open for examination by the tax authorities under a three year statute of limitations. Should the Company utilize any of its U.S. or state loss carryforwards, its carryforward losses, which date back
to 1995, would be subject to examination.

13. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Subsequent to quarter end, on October 15, 2010, the Company closed its previously-announced acquisition of the assets of Sunflower Broadband (Sunflower), a provider of video, voice and
data services to residential and business customers in Douglas County, Lawrence, Kansas and the surrounding area for $165,000. At December 31, 2009, Sunflower had approximately $35,800 in total assets, $50,000 in annual total revenues, $8,786
in pretax income and $10,925 of equity (all unaudited).

In connection with the acquisition,
Knology has entered into a $770,000 first lien credit facility with proceeds used to partially fund the acquisition purchase price, refinance the companys existing credit facility, and pay related transaction costs. Knology also used
approximately $48,000 of cash on hand to partially fund the transaction. The new $770,000 credit agreement includes a $50,000 revolving credit facility, a $175,000 term loan A and a $545,000 term loan B. The revolving credit facility is not being
used in connection with the acquisition or refinancing. The term loan A bears interest at LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 3.5% to 4.25% and has a term of five years with annual amortization of $8,750, $8,750, $17,500 and $26,250 in 2012, 2013, 2014
and 2015, respectively, with the balance due at maturity. The term loan B bears interest at LIBOR plus 4%, with a LIBOR floor of 1.5%, and has a term of six years with 1% principal amortization annually with the balance due at maturity.

spending:
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | that we will not be able to integrate the assets and operations of Sunflower Broadband, that we will not be able to complete future acquisitions, that
we may have difficulties integrating other acquired businesses, or that the cost of such integration will be greater than we expect: and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | that some other unforeseen difficulties occur, as well as those risks set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,

For convenience in this quarterly report, Knology,
we, us, and the Company refer to Knology, Inc. and our consolidated subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

Overview

We were formed
as a Delaware corporation in September 1998 and began trading publicly on the NASDAQ Global Market in December 2003. We are a fully integrated provider of video, voice, data and advanced communications services to residential and business customers
in ten markets in the Southeastern United States and two markets in the Midwestern United States. We provide a full suite of video, voice and data services in Dothan, Huntsville and Montgomery, Alabama; Panama City and portions of Pinellas County,
Florida; Augusta, Columbus and West Point, Georgia; Charleston, South Carolina; Knoxville, Tennessee; and Rapid City and Sioux Falls, South Dakota, as well as portions of Minnesota and Iowa. Our primary business is the delivery of bundled
communication services over our own network. In addition to our bundled package offerings, we sell these services on an unbundled basis.

We have built our business through:



| |  |  | construction and expansion of our broadband network to offer integrated video, voice and data services;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | organic growth of connections through increased penetration of services to new marketable homes and our existing customer base, along with new service
offerings;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | upgrades of acquired networks to introduce expanded broadband services including bundled video, voice and data services; and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | acquisitions of other broadband companies.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------

The following is a discussion of our consolidated financial condition and results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, and certain factors that are expected to affect our
prospective financial condition. The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Recent Developments

Subsequent to quarter end, on October 15, 2010, the Company closed its previously-announced acquisition of the assets of Sunflower
Broadband, a provider of video, voice and data services to residential and business customers in Douglas County, Lawrence, Kansas and the surrounding area for $165.0 million. At December 31, 2009, Sunflower Broadband had approximately $35.8
million in total assets, $50.0 million in annual total revenues, $8.8 million in pretax income and $10.9 million of equity (all unaudited).

In connection with the
acquisition, Knology has entered into a $770.0 million first lien credit facility with proceeds used to partially fund the acquisition purchase price, refinance indebtedness under the companys existing credit facility, and pay related
transaction costs. Knology also used approximately $48.0 million of cash on hand to partially fund the transaction. The new $770.0 million credit agreement includes a $50.0 million revolving credit facility, a $175.0 million term loan A and a $545.0
million term loan B. The revolving credit facility is not being used in connection with the acquisition or refinancing. The term loan A bears interest at LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 3.5% to 4.25% and has a term of five years with annual
amortization of $8.8 million, $8.8 million, $17.5 million and $26.3 million in 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015, respectively, with the balance due at maturity. The term loan B bears interest at LIBOR plus 4%, with a LIBOR floor of 1.5%, and has a term of
six years with 1% principal amortization annually with the balance due at maturity.

In November 2009, we completed the $7.5
million acquisition of the assets of Private Cable Co., LLC (PCL Cable), which has delivered small increases in key operating and financial metrics as well as being free cash flow accretive. The transaction was funded using $7.5 million
from cash on hand.

We plan to spend approximately $17.9 million to expand our coverage in certain sections of our existing
markets as well as build network in a new franchise area.

Connections

Because we deliver multiple services to our customers, we report the total number of connections for video, voice and data rather than the
total number of customers. We count each video, voice or data purchase as a separate connection. For example, a single customer who purchases cable television, local telephone and Internet access services would count as three connections. We do not
record the purchase of digital video services by an analog video customer as an additional connection.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States, which require us to make estimates and assumptions. See our consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, which contains accounting
policies including those that may involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity and other disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

Revenues

Our operating revenues are primarily derived from monthly charges
for video, voice and Internet data services and other services to residential and business customers. We provide these services over our network. Our products and services involve different types of charges and in some cases several methods of
accounting for or recording revenues. Below is a description of our significant sources of revenue:



| |  |  | Video revenues. Our video revenues consist of fixed monthly fees for expanded basic, premium and digital cable television services, as well as
fees from pay-per-view movies, fees for video-on-demand and events such as boxing matches and concerts that involve a charge for each viewing. Video revenues accounted for approximately 44.7% of our consolidated revenues for both the three and nine
months ended September 30, 2010, compared to 43.5% and 43.3% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, respectively.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Voice revenues. Our voice revenues consist primarily of fixed monthly fees for local service and enhanced services, such as call waiting, voice
mail and measured and flat rate long-distance service. Voice revenues accounted for approximately 28.2% and 28.4% of our consolidated revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, respectively, compared to 30.6% and 31.1% for
the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, respectively.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Data revenues. Our data revenues consist primarily of fixed monthly fees for data service and rental of cable modems. Data revenues accounted
for approximately 23.2% of our consolidated revenues for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, compared to 23.1% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Other revenues. Other revenues result principally from broadband carrier services and dark fiber sales. Other revenues accounted for
approximately 3.9% and 3.7% of our consolidated revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, respectively, compared to 2.7% and 2.5% of our consolidated revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009,
respectively.

Our ability to
increase the number of our connections and, as a result, our revenues is directly affected by the level of competition we face in each of our markets with respect to each of our service offerings:



| |  |  | In providing video services, we currently compete with AT&T Inc., Bright House Networks, CenturyTel, Inc., Charter Communications, Inc., Comcast
Corporation, Mediacom Communications Corporation, Midcontinent Communications, Qwest Communications, Time Warner Cable, Inc. and Verizon Communications Inc. We also compete with satellite television providers such as DirecTV, Inc. and Echostar
Communications Corporation. Our other competitors include broadcast television stations and other satellite television companies. We expect in the future to face additional competition from telephone companies providing video services within their
service areas.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | In providing local and long-distance telephone services, we compete with the incumbent local exchange carriers (ILECs) and various long-distance
providers in each of our markets. AT&T, CenturyTel, Qwest and Verizon are the incumbent local phone companies in our markets. They offer both local and long-distance services in our markets and are particularly strong competitors. We also
compete with providers of long-distance telephone services, such as AT&T, CenturyTel (which acquired Embarq Communications in 2009) and Verizon. We expect an increase in the deployment of voice over internet protocol (VoIP) services and expect
to continue to compete with Vonage Holding Company, cable competitors as they roll out VoIP and other providers.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | In providing data services, we compete with ILECs that offer dial-up and DSL services, providers of satellite-based Internet access services, cable
television companies, providers of wireless high-speed data services, and providers of dial-up Internet service. Data services and Internet access is a rapidly growing business and competition is increasing in each of our markets.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Some of our competitors have competitive advantages such as greater experience, resources, marketing
capabilities and stronger name recognition.

Costs and Expenses

Our operating expenses include direct cost of services, selling, general and administrative expenses, and depreciation and amortization.

Direct costs of services include:



| |  |  | Direct costs of video services. Direct costs of video services consist primarily of monthly fees to the National Cable Television Cooperative
and other programming providers. Programming costs are our largest single cost and we expect this trend to continue. Programming costs as a percentage of video revenue were approximately 51.9% for both the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2010, compared to 51.0% and 51.9% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, respectively. We have entered into contracts with various entities to provide programming to be aired on our network. We pay a monthly
fee for these programming services, generally based on the average number of subscribers to the program, although some fees are adjusted based on the total number of subscribers to the system and/or the system penetration percentage. Since
programming cost is partially based on number of subscribers, it will increase as we add more subscribers. It will also increase as costs per channel increase over time.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Direct costs of voice services. Direct costs of voice services consist primarily of transport cost and network access fees. The direct cost of
voice services as a percentage of voice revenues was approximately 17.9% and 18.3% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, respectively, compared to 18.0% for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Direct costs of data services. Direct costs of data services consist primarily of transport cost and network access fees. The direct cost of
data services as a percentage of data revenue was approximately 7.9% and 7.7% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, respectively, compared to 7.3% and 6.9% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009,
respectively.

| |  |  | Direct costs of other services. Direct costs of other services consist primarily of transport cost, network access fees and costs of dark fiber
sales. The direct cost of other services as a percentage of other revenue was approximately 34.0% and 33.7% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, respectively, compared to 19.7% and 19.2% for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2009, respectively. The increase is due mainly to the costs of dark fiber sales recorded during the quarter ended September 30, 2010.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Pole attachment and other network rental expenses. Pole attachment and other network rental expenses consist primarily of pole attachment rents
paid to utility companies for space on their utility poles to deliver our various services and network hub rents. Pole attachment and other network rental expenses as a percentage of total revenue was approximately 1.1% for both the three and nine
months ended September 30, 2010, compared to 0.2% and 0.9% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, respectively.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Selling, general and administrative expenses include:



| |  |  | Sales and marketing expenses. Sales and marketing expenses include the cost of sales and marketing personnel and advertising and promotional
expenses.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Network operations and maintenance expenses. Network operations and maintenance expenses include payroll and departmental costs incurred for
network design, 24 hours a day, seven days a week maintenance monitoring and plant maintenance activity.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Service and installation expenses. Service and installation expenses include payroll and departmental costs incurred for customer installation
and service technicians.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Customer service expenses. Customer service expenses include payroll and departmental costs incurred for customer service representatives and
customer service management, primarily at our centralized call center.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | General and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses consist of corporate and subsidiary management and administrative
costs.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Depreciation and amortization expenses include depreciation of our interactive broadband networks
and equipment and amortization of costs in excess of net assets and other intangible assets related to acquisitions.

As our
sales and marketing efforts continue and our networks expand, we expect to add customer connections resulting in increased revenue. We also expect our cost of services and operating expenses to increase as we add connections and grow our business.

Revenues.
Operating revenues increased 6.7% from $105.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009, to $112.9 million for three months ended September 30, 2010. Operating revenues from video services increased 9.7% from $46.0 million for
the three months ended September 30, 2009, to $50.1 million for the same period in 2010. Operating revenues from voice services decreased 1.8% from $32.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009, to $31.8 million for the same
period in 2010. Operating revenues from data services increased 7.0% from $24.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009, to $26.2 million for the same period in 2010. Operating revenues from other services increased 51.1% from
$2.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009, to $4.4 million for the same period in 2010.

The increased
revenues are due primarily to an increase in the number of connections, from 681,920 as of September 30, 2009, to 700,476 as of September 30, 2010 and rate increases effective in the first quarter of 2010. The additional connections
resulted primarily from:



| |  |  | continued growth in our bundled customers;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------



| |  |  | continued growth in business data sales; and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------



| |  |  | continued penetration in our mature markets.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------

The decreased voice services revenues are due primarily to a decrease in residential local service revenue and features revenue as a result of customers choosing our discounted service plans offering
discounted features such as voicemail, call waiting, and call forwarding. The Company also experienced a decline in business service revenue and business toll.

The increase in operating revenues from other services included $361,000 of dark fiber sales recorded during the three months ended September 30, 2009, compared to $1.4 million for the same period of
2010. The increase in operating revenues from other services also resulted from increased broadband carrier services.

Direct Costs. Direct costs increased 15.1% from $31.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009, to $36.7 million
for the three months ended September 30, 2010. Direct costs of video services increased 11.6% from $23.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009, to $26.2 million for the same period in 2010. Direct costs of voice services
decreased 2.2% from $5.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009, to $5.7 million for the same period in 2010. Direct costs of data services increased 16.0% from $1.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009, to
$2.1 million for the same period in 2010. Direct costs of other services increased 160.0% from $571,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2009, to $1.5 million for the same period in 2010. Pole attachment and other network rental
expenses increased 439.3% from $231,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2009, to $1.2 million for the same period in 2010 as a result of credits for pole rent available to Knology for the period in 2009. We expect our cost of services
to increase in amount as we add more connections. The increase in direct costs of video services is primarily due to programming costs increases, which have been increasing over the last several years on an aggregate basis due to an increase in
subscribers and on a per subscriber basis due to an increase in costs per program channel. Further, local commercial television broadcast stations are charging retransmission fees similar to fees charged by other program providers. We expect the
trend of annual increases to continue and we may not be able to pass these higher costs on to customers because of competitive factors, which could adversely affect our cash flow and gross profit. We expect increases in voice, data and other direct
costs of services with the additions of leased facilities used to backhaul our traffic to our switching facilities as connections and data capacity requirements increase.

Selling, general and administrative expenses. Our selling, general and administrative expenses increased 1.3% from $39.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009, to $40.1
million for the three months ended September 30, 2010. The increase in our operating costs, included in selling, general and administrative expenses, is consistent with our growth in connections and customers since the third quarter of 2009,
and consists mainly of increases in rents and leases, bad debt expense and employee related expenses. These increases were offset by reductions in taxes and licenses, and sales and marketing expenses. Our non-cash stock option compensation expense,
included in selling, general and administrative expenses, decreased from $1.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009, to $1.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010 as a result of the issuance of fewer
additional stock awards.

Depreciation and amortization. Our depreciation and amortization decreased from
$22.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009, to $20.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010, primarily due to the maturing of our asset base.

Interest expense. Interest expense decreased from $10.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009, to $8.3
million for the three months ended September 30, 2010. The decrease in interest expense is primarily a result of the decrease in interest rates on our term loans resulting from the commencement of our new interest rate swap. In addition, we
recorded $4.5 million and $451,000 in amortization of deferred loss associated with our derivative instruments for the three months ended September 30, 2009 and 2010, respectively. A gain of $2.8 million and a loss of $651,000 was recorded on
the value of the interest rate swaps for the three months ended September 30, 2009 and 2010, respectively.

Debt modification
charge. We recorded an expense of $3.4 million during the three months ended September 30, 2009 related to the modification of the debt under the Credit Agreement in accordance with the terms of Amendment No. 2, which provides for the
extension of the maturity date of an aggregate $397 million of term loans by two years.

Net income ( loss). We
incurred a net loss of $3.3 million and net income of $5.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009 and 2010, respectively.

Nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to nine months ended September 30, 2009

Revenues.Operating revenues increased 5.5% from $318.4 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2009, to $336.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. Operating revenues from video services increased 9.0% from $137.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, to $150.2 million for the same
period in 2010. Operating revenues from voice services decreased 3.4% from $98.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, to $95.6 million for the same period in 2010. Operating revenues from data services increased 5.9% from $73.6
million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, to $77.9 million for the same period in 2010. Operating revenues from other services increased 52.4% from $8.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, to $12.3 million for
the same period in 2010.

The increased revenues are due primarily to an increase in the number of connections, from 681,920
as of September 30, 2009, to 700,476 as of September 30, 2010 and rate increases effective in the first quarter of 2010. The additional connections resulted primarily from:



| |  |  | continued growth in our bundled customers;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------



| |  |  | continued growth in business data sales; and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------



| |  |  | continued penetration in our mature markets.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------

The operating revenues from other services increased as a result of dark fiber sales and increased broadband carrier services.

Direct Costs.Direct costs increased 10.7% from $98.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, to $109.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. Direct costs of
video services increased 9.0% from $71.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, to $77.9 million for the same period in 2010. Direct costs of voice services decreased 1.8% from $17.8 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2009, to $17.5 million for the same period in 2010. Direct costs of data services increased 17.5% from $5.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, to $6.0 million for the same period in 2010. Direct costs of
other services increased 166.9% from $1.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, to $4.2 million for the same period in 2010. Pole attachment and other network rental expenses increased 34.2% from $2.8 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 2009, to $3.7 million for the same period in 2010. As discussed above in the results for the three months ended September 30, 2010, the causes of our changes are consistent for the nine months period.

Selling, general
and administrative. Our selling, general and administrative expenses remained unchanged at $116.6 million for both the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2010. Although unchanged, our operating costs, included in selling, general
and administrative expenses contained increases in rents and leases, bad debt expense, and repairs and maintenance expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. These increases were partially offset by decreases in sales and marketing,
and taxes and licenses. Our non-cash stock option compensation expense, included in selling, general and administrative, decreased from $4.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, to $4.4 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2010.

Depreciation and amortization. Our depreciation and amortization decreased from
$68.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, to $64.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, primarily due to the maturing of our asset base.

Interest expense. Interest expense increased from $29.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, to $31.1
million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. The increase in interest expense is primarily a result of the increase in interest rates on our term loans prior to the commencement of our new interest rate swap during the quarter ended
September 30, 2010. In addition, we recorded $13.8 million and $10.3 million in amortization of deferred loss associated with our derivative instruments for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2010, respectively. A gain of $6.5
million and $8.1 million was recorded on the value of the interest rate swaps for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2010, respectively.

Debt modification charge. We recorded an expense of $3.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2009 related to the modification of the debt under the Credit Agreement in
accordance with the terms of Amendment No. 2, which provides for the extension of the maturity date of an aggregate $397 million of term loans by two years.

Net income ( loss). We incurred a net loss of $4.3 million and net income $12.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2010, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview.

As of
September 30, 2010, we had approximately $92.9 million of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, certificates of deposit and U.S. Treasury Bills on our balance sheet. Our net working capital on September 30, 2010 and December 31,
2009 was $53.5 million and $26.2 million, respectively.

On January 4, 2008, the Company entered into a First Amendment
to the Credit Agreement which provides for a $59.0 million incremental term loan. The proceeds of the term loan were used to fund in part the $75.0 million Graceba acquisition purchase price. This term loan bears interest at LIBOR plus 2.75%. Prior
to Amendment No. 2 discussed below, this term loan amortized at a rate of 1.0% per annum, payable quarterly, with a June 30, 2012 maturity date. As of September 30, 2010, $32.0 million is outstanding on the incremental term loan.
In December 2007, the Company entered into a new interest rate swap contract to mitigate interest rate risk on a notional amount of $59.0 million. The swap agreement, which became effective January 4, 2008, fixes $57.5 million of the floating
rate debt at 3.995% until September 30, 2010.

On September 28, 2009, the Company entered into Amendment No. 2
which extends the maturity date of an aggregate $397 million of term loans under the Credit Agreement by two years. The extended term loan bears interest at LIBOR plus 3.50% and amortizes at a rate of 1% per annum, payable quarterly, with a
June 30, 2014 maturity date. Amendment No. 2 also, among other modifications, increases the revolving credit facility to $35.0 million from $25.0 million and allows for an annual, cumulative restricted payment allowance of $10 million for
dividends and/or share repurchases utilizing excess cash flow and subject to a maximum leverage test. As of September 30, 2010, $386.8 million is outstanding under the extended term loan. On November 25, 2009, the Company entered into a
third interest rate swap contract to mitigate interest rate risk on an initial notional amount of $400 million. The swap agreement, which became effective July 3, 2010 and ends April 3, 2012, fixes $400.0 million of the floating rate debt
at 1.98% as of September 30, 2010.

The Credit Agreement is guaranteed by substantially all of the Companys
subsidiaries and secured by a first-priority lien and security interest in substantially all of the Companys assets and the assets of its subsidiaries. The Credit Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, various affirmative
and negative covenants and customary events of default. As of September 30, 2010, we are in compliance with all our debt covenants.

Subsequent to quarter end, on October 15, 2010, the Company closed its previously-announced acquisition of the assets of Sunflower Broadband, a provider of video, voice and data services to
residential and business customers in Douglas County, Lawrence, Kansas and the surrounding area for $165.0 million. At December 31, 2009, Sunflower Broadband had approximately $35.8 million in total assets, $50.0 million in annual total
revenues, $8.8 million in pretax income and $10.9 million of equity (all unaudited).

In connection with the
acquisition, Knology has entered into a $770.0 million first lien credit facility with proceeds used to partially fund the acquisition purchase price, refinance indebtedness under the companys existing credit facility described below, and pay
related transaction costs. Knology also used approximately $48.0 million of cash on hand to partially fund the transaction. The new $770.0 million credit agreement includes a $50.0 million revolving credit facility, a $175.0 million term loan A and
a $545.0 million term loan B. The revolving credit facility is not being used in connection with the acquisition or refinancing. The term loan A bears interest at LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 3.5% to 4.25% and has a term of five years with
annual amortization of $8.8 million, $8.8 million, $17.5 million and $26.3 million in 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015, respectively, with the balance due at maturity. The term loan B bears interest at LIBOR plus 4%, with a LIBOR floor of 1.5%, and has a
term of six years with 1% principal amortization annually with the balance due at maturity.

We believe there is adequate
liquidity from cash on hand, cash provided from operations and funds available under our $50.0 million revolving credit facility to meet our capital spending requirements and to execute our current business plan.

Operating, Investing and Financing Activities.

Net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations totaled $76.3 million and $88.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2010, respectively. The net cash flow
activity related to operations consists primarily of changes in operating assets and liabilities and adjustments to net income for non-cash transactions including:



| |  |  | depreciation and amortization;
| | - |  | ------------------------------



| |  |  | non-cash stock compensation;
| | - |  | ----------------------------



| |  |  | non-cash amortization of deferred loss on interest rate swaps;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | non-cash bank loan interest expense;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------



| |  |  | non-cash interest income;
| | - |  | -------------------------



| |  |  | gain on sale of short term investments;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------



| |  |  | non-cash gain (loss) on interest rate derivative instrument;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | provision for bad debt; and
| | - |  | ---------------------------



| |  |  | gain on disposition of assets
| | - |  | -----------------------------

Net cash used in investing activities was $76.2 million and $54.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2010, respectively. Our investing activities for the nine months ended
September 30, 2009 consisted primarily of $40.5 million of capital expenditures and $35.1 million for the purchase of certificates of deposit. Investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 consisted primarily of $57.5
million of capital expenditures and $30.0 million for the purchase of certificates of deposit, offset by $20.0 million of maturities of certificates of deposit and $15.0 million from the sale of U.S Treasury Bills.

Net cash used by our financing activities was $16.7 million and $16.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2010,
respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2009, financing activities consisted of $15.2 million in principal payments on debt and $1.8 million of expenditures related to the modification of long-term debt, offset by $328,000
proceeds from the exercise of stock options. Financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 consisted of $18.0 million in principal payments on debt, offset by $1.1 million proceeds from the exercise of stock options.

Capital Expenditures.

We spent approximately $57.5 million in capital expenditures during the nine months ended September 30, 2010, of which $23.5 million related to the purchase and installation of customer premise
equipment, $16.9 million related to plant extensions and enhancements and $17.1 million related to network equipment, billing and information systems and other capital items.

We expect to spend approximately $71.0 million in capital expenditures during 2010. We believe we will have sufficient cash on hand and cash from internally generated cash flow to cover our planned
operating expenses and capital expenditures and to service our debt during 2010. Our existing indebtedness limits the amount of our capital expenditures on an annual basis.

|ITEM 3. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
|------- | ----------------------------------------------------------

We use interest rate swap and interest rate cap contracts to manage the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and operating cash flows. Interest rate swaps involve the receipt of variable-rate
amounts in exchange for fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying principal amount. Interest rate caps involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts beyond a specified strike price over the life of the
agreements without exchange of the underlying principal amount. We believe that these agreements are with counterparties who are creditworthy financial institutions.

Until the December 31, 2008 reset of the borrowing rate on the $59.0 million term loan, changes in the fair value of the Companys swap agreements were recorded as Accumulated other
comprehensive loss in the equity section of the balance sheet, and the swap in variable to fixed interest rate was recorded as Interest expense on the statement of operations when the interest was incurred. Starting with the reset
of the borrowing rate on December 31, 2008, changes in the fair value of the interest rate swaps are recorded as Gain (loss) on interest rate swaps in the Other income (expense) section of the statement of operations as
they are incurred. The remaining balance in Accumulated other comprehensive loss in the stockholders equity section of the balance sheet that is related to the interest rate swaps is amortized as Amortization of deferred loss
on interest rate swaps on the statement of operations over the remaining life of the derivative instruments. The Company recorded amortization expense related to the deferred loss on interest rate swaps in the amounts of $4.5 million and $13.8
million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009. The Company also recorded amortization expense related to the deferred loss on interest rate swaps in the amounts of $451,000 and $10.3 million for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2010. As of September 30, 2010, the entire remaining amount in accumulated other comprehensive loss related to these interest rate swaps has been amortized.

On November 25, 2009, the Company entered into a third interest rate swap contract to mitigate interest rate risk on an initial
notional amount of $400.0 million. The swap agreement, which became effective July 3, 2010 and ends April 3, 2012, fixes $400.0 million of the floating rate debt at 1.98% as of September 30, 2010.

The notional amount for the next annual period is summarized below:



|                |  |                 |  |       
|--------------- |  | --------------- |  | ------
|Start date      |  | End date        |  | Amount
|July 3, 2010    |  | October 2, 2010 |  | $400.0
|October 3, 2010 |  | January 2, 2011 |  | $398.8
|January 3, 2011 |  | April 2, 2011   |  | $382.6
|April 3, 2011   |  | July 2, 2011    |  | $381.4
|July 3, 2011    |  | October 2, 2011 |  | $380.2

As with the previous two interest
rate swaps, this interest rate instrument is not designated as a hedge and therefore does not utilize hedge accounting. Changes in the fair value of the swap agreement are recorded as Gain (loss) on interest rate swaps in the Other
income (expense) section of the statement of operations and the swap in variable to fixed interest rate is recorded as Interest expense on the statement of operations when the interest is incurred.

The Company recorded a gain on the change in the fair value of the interest rate swaps in the amounts of $2.8 million and $6.5 million
for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009. The Company also recorded a gain (loss) on the change in the fair value of the interest rate swaps in the amounts of $(651,000) and $8.1 million for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2010.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION



|ITEM 1. | Legal Proceedings
|------- | -----------------

We are
subject to litigation in the normal course of our business. However, in our opinion there is no legal proceeding pending against us which would have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or liquidity. We are also
a party to regulatory proceedings affecting the segments of the communications industry generally in which we engage in business.

We have been named as a defendant in a lawsuit captioned Manard v. Knology, Inc. filed in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Georgia. The complaint was filed on
February 2, 2010 as a putative class action. The case arose out of an online advertising trial of a system designed by a third-party advertising company, NebuAd Inc., for delivery of advertising to computer users while they are navigating the
Internet. The complaint, which was filed on behalf of Knology customers using the Internet during the trial period, alleges that electronic communications were intercepted and used in violation of the federal and state privacy statutes and
seeks statutory damages for such alleged violations. The action was initially filed in California against Knology and other defendants where it was dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. Counsel for the plaintiff has filed new complaints
against the same defendants but they filed separate complaints against each company trialing NebuAds system. Knology filed its motion to dismiss on March 26, 2010. On April 22, 2010, Knology filed a motion to compel
arbitration and stay the proceedings in the District Court. On June 18, 2010, the District Court granted our motion to compel arbitration and stay court proceedings and determined that Knologys motion to dismiss was moot. We intend to
vigorously defend the case in arbitration. Given that this claim is still in its initial stages, it is premature to estimate the impact it could have to our results of operation, financial condition or cash flows.



|ITEM 1A. | Risk Factors
|-------- | ------------

In addition
to the other information set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2009, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. The risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are not the only risks that we face.
Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.
