<br /> ---------- <br /> EXHIBIT A - Continued <br />. A - 17. Meredith Cable proposes that interconnection between commonly owned, . <br /> adjacent franchised systems in the Twin Cities marketplace can be accommodated by <br /> making available one (1) 6 NIHZ channel for forward video purposes, one (I) 6 NIHZ <br /> channel for return video purposes, one (1) 6 MHZ channel for forward data and lor other <br /> purposes, and one (1) 6 NIHZ channel for return data and/or other purposes. Actual <br /> interconnection with other franchise areas will be subject to technical capability of those <br /> systems and those franchise areas entering into similar renewal agreements containing <br /> similar provisions. <br />. A - 18. Meredith Cable plans to have a 750 NIHZ carrier inserted at a level 1 Odb below <br /> the video carriers that witl be measured as a normal procedure during service catls. The <br /> drop cable and passives witl be inspected during normal instatlations to assure that 750 <br /> NIHZ can be passed. Should a drop or associated passive equipment not pass the futl 750 <br /> NIHZ, the address will be noted and at the time the address upgrades service that requires <br /> signal above 550 NIHZ, the drop and/or associated equipment will be changed out. <br />B. INSTITUTIONAL NETWORK <br />Meredith Cable proposes to meet the needs of institutions and users by upgrading the existing <br />Institutional Network, including fiber capacity in the system to facilitate 'future Institutional <br />Network enhancements, and with mutually acceptable franchise language relating to technical and <br />performance standards for the Institutional Network. This plan witl offer flexibility and <br />alternatives to local governments, public school districts, private schools, higher educational . <br />institutions, libraries and the social service community for the delivery and exchange of video and <br />telecommunications services. Specifically, Meredith Cable proposes to make the following <br />franchise commitments: <br />. B-1. Frequency spectrum (including upstream and downstream); 5 - 450 MHZ. <br />. B-2. Channel capacity of 54 channels (16 upstream and 38 downstream). <br />. B-3. 15 additional pilot generators. <br />. B - 4. Re-tuning of 10 existing pilot generators. <br />. B - 5. Re-tuning of 124 existing amplifiers. <br />. B - 6. Provision of20 additional modulators or de-modulators <br />. B - 7. Standby power with full battery placement. <br />. B.8. Four (4) count shadow fiber placed along that part of the subscriber network that <br /> parallels the Institutional Network. <br /> , . <br /> ~ <br />
