Chartwell 5299 DTC Boulevord Suwte 260 Englewood. CO 80111 303/694-1700 FAX 694-0070 June 4, 1990 D E5,57 Bruce T. Barker , � r .� Assistant Weld County Attorney P.O. Box 1948 S J - j Greeley, CO 80632 —� t, 'TV RE: Chartwell Cable of Colorado, Inc. / p7T � ._,_ ' Cable Television Franchise Dear Mr. Barker: This letter is written in response to your letters dated May 25 and May 31, 1990, regarding some outstanding matters related to Chartwell Cable of Colorado, Inc. 's ("Chartwell") franchise in Weld County. Performance Bond. At your request, I contacted the agent for the Hanover Insurance Company regarding your requested amendment to Bond No. BCZ1773949 . The Bond was issued in December 1988 and will not expire until December 1991. I have enclosed a copy of my letter to Franey & Parr, the agents for Hanover, requesting that the Bond be amended via a letter to Weld County. Certificate of Insurance. Enclosed is a Certificate of Insurance issued by National Farmers Union Insurance. The policy has been in continuous effect since issuance of the franchise. A new certificate will be issued to Weld County on or before 8/5/90, the current policy expiration date. Franchise Fees. No franchise fees were paid or became due for the year 1989 or for the first Fiscal Quarter of 1990, simply because we had no "subscriber revenues" subject to the franchise fee for those periods. Chartwell "fired up" its cable system in April and therefor it is now generating revenues upon which fees will be paid. 90138L4 Page Two Service & Rates. Enclosed is Chartwell's Channel Guide and Rate Card together with a General Information Card and a Description of Programming. Area Served. Chartwell now serves the areas of Del Camino (I-25 Exit) , Casa Grande Estates and Enchanted Hills Subdivision and the following connecting routes: CR24 from I-25 to CR17; CR13 from CR24 to CR20; CR20 from CR13 to Del Camino Lane; and, CR22 from 1/2 mile east of CR11 to CR17 . Subscriber Count. Total subscribers as of April 30, 1990, with the franchise territory, was 78. We expect the total subscribers to grow dramatically as we market the areas we can now serve. Business and Service Office. Chartwell maintains two offices in Colorado, one at 187 S.E. 14th, Unit One, Loveland, Colorado 80537, and the other at 5299 DTC Boulevard, Suite 260, Englewood, Colorado 80111. All service and billing calls are automatically forwarded to the Denver office for answering. All service orders and service problems are then faxed back to the Loveland office where service technicians complete the order and advise the central office. All service calls are handled promptly and all technicians maintain pagers to insure access immediately in case of an emergency. Acceptance of Franchise. While I believe prior acceptance was forwarded, I have enclosed herewith your Acceptance of Franchise fully executed and notarized. I believe this letter addresses all of the items raised by your two letters. Page Three Your cooperation has been greatly appreciated. Please advise if any additional information is needed.

An examination of the Chartwell Cable file reveals a need for the following: A. The Board must be assured that the performance bond which was issued on December 19 , 1988 , is still in effect. The performance bond in the sum of $2 ,000 is required by subsection B. , under the section entitled "Letter of Credit/Cash Deposit" and found on page 22 of We1d ,County Ordinance 94 . B. The Board must receive a Certificate of Insurance from Chartwell Cable which includes "weld County, Colorado, by and through the Board of County Commissioners of Weld County" as an additional named insured. The insurance must be in the amounts specified in subsection A. , under the section entitled "Liability and Insurance" found on page 26 of Weld County Ordinance 94 . The Certificate of Insurance must also contain the endorsement found in subsection D. , under the section entitled "Liability and Insurance. " C. Weld County has never received from Chartwell Cable any of the franchise fees as required by subsection A. , under the section entitled "Franchise Fees" found on page 30 of Weld County Ordinance 94 , for the year 1989 and for the first Fiscal Quarter of 1990 . Please note Bryan McDougal Page 2 May 25 , 1990 that the franchise fees are five percent (5%) o£ the annual gross revenues of the company. These franchise fees must be paid quarterly. D. In addition to the above-stated information, the Board of County Commissioners would also like to receive the following information from Chartwell Cable: 1 .
