Account"), which shall be comprised of two subaccounts, an Ordinary Capital
Account and a Preferred Capital Account. The opening balance in each Partner's

--
decreasing such balance by (x) the amount of cash or the fair market value of
---------- -

secured by such distributed property that the distributee Partner is considered

resolved by the General Partners, collectively, in good faith and in their
reasonably exercised discretion, applying principles consistent with this

Article III
-----------
Accounting, Distributions and Taxes
-----------------------------------
6
3.1 Allocations of Net Profits and Net Losses. (a) The Net Profit
-----------------------------------------
and Net Loss of the Partnership, including each item of income, gain, loss,
credit and deduction, shall be allocated with respect to each Fiscal Year as of
the end of such Fiscal Year.
(b) Net Profit and Net Loss of the Partnership shall be allocated
among the Partners so as to reduce, proportionately, in the case of a Net
Profit, the difference between their respective Target Capital Accounts and
Partially Adjusted Capital Accounts and, in the case of a Net Loss, the
difference between their respective Partially Adjusted Capital Accounts and
Target Capital Accounts as of the end of such Fiscal Year. No portion of Net
Profit or Net Loss for any Fiscal Year shall be allocated to a Partner, in the
case of a Net Profit, whose Partially Adjusted Capital Account is greater than
or equal to its Target Capital Account or, in the case of a Net Loss, whose
Target Capital Account is greater than or equal to its Partially Adjusted
Capital Account for such Fiscal Year.
(c) If (i) the Partnership has a Net Profit for any Fiscal Year
-
(determined prior to giving effect to this Section 3.1(c)) and, notwithstanding
the application of Section 3.1(b), the balance of any Partner's Partially
Adjusted Capital Account is greater than the balance of its Target Capital
Account, then the Partner with such excess balance shall be specially allocated
items of Partnership expense or loss (to the extent available) equal to the
difference between its Partially Adjusted Capital Account and its Target
Capital Account; (ii) the Partnership has a Net Loss for any Fiscal Year
--
(determined prior to giving effect to this Section 3.1(c)) and, notwithstanding
the application of Section 3.1(b), the balance of any Partner's Partially
Adjusted Capital Account is less than the balance of its Target Capital Account,
then the Partner with such deficient balance shall be specially allocated items
of Partnership income or gain for such Fiscal Year (to the extent available)
equal to the difference between its Partially Adjusted Capital Account and its
Target Capital Account; and (iii) the Part
---
7
nership has neither a Net Profit nor a Net Loss for any Fiscal Year (determined
prior to giving effect to this Section 3.1(c)) and, notwithstanding the
application of Section 3.1(b), the balance of any Partner's Partially Adjusted
Capital Account differs from the balance of its Target Capital Account, then
the Partner with an excess or deficient balance, as the case may be, shall be
specially allocated items of Partnership expense or loss or income or gain, as
the case may be, for such Fiscal Year (to the extent available) equal to the
difference between its Partially Adjusted Capital Account and its Target Capital
Account.
3.2 Qualified Income Offsets, Restorative Allocations. (a) If (i)
-------------------------------------------------- -
any Partner unexpectedly receives any adjustment, allocation or distribution
described in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or (6)
and (ii) such adjustment, allocation or distribution causes or increases a
--
deficit in such Partner's Adjusted Capital Account as of the end of the Fiscal
Period to which such adjustment, allocation or distribution relates (a
"Deficit"), then items of gross income for such Fiscal Period and each
subsequent Fiscal Period shall be specifically allocated to each such Partner
pro rata in proportion to its Deficits in an amount and manner sufficient to
--- ----
eliminate, to the extent required by the Treasury Regulations, such Deficit as
quickly as possible, provided that an allocation pursuant to this Section 3.2
--------
shall be made only if and to the extent that such Partner would have a Deficit
after all other allocations provided for in this Article III have been
tentatively made as if this Section 3.2 were not in this Agreement.
(b) Any special allocations of items of income or gain pursuant to
this Section 3.2 shall be taken into account in computing subsequent
allocations pursuant to this Agreement, so that the net amount for any item so
allocated and all other items allocated to each Partner pursuant to this
Agreement shall be equal, to the extent possible, to the net amount that would
have been allocated to each Part-
8
ner pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement if such special allocations had
not occurred.
3.3 Partnership Minimum Gain. Except as otherwise provided in
------------------------
Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(f), if there is a net decrease in
Partnership Minimum Gain during any Partnership Fiscal Year, each Partner shall
be specially allocated items of Partnership income and gain for such period
(and, if necessary, subsequent periods) in proportion to, and to the extent of,
an amount equal to the portion of such Partner's share of the net decrease in
Partnership Minimum Gain, determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations
Section 1.704-2(g). This Section 3.3 is intended to comply with the chargeback
of items of income and gain requirement in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-
2(f) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.
3.4 Minimum Gain Attributable to Partner Nonrecourse Debt. Except as
-----------------------------------------------------
otherwise provided in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i), if there is a net
decrease in Minimum Gain Attributable to Partner Nonrecourse Debt during any
Partnership Fiscal Year, each Partner with a share of Minimum Gain Attributable
to Partner Nonrecourse Debt shall be specially allocated items of Partnership
income and gain for such period (and, if necessary, subsequent periods) in
proportion to, and to the extent of, an amount equal to the portion of such
Partner's share of the net decrease in the Minimum Gain Attributable to Partner
Nonrecourse Debt, determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section
1.704-2(i)(4). This Section 3.4 is intended to comply with the chargeback of
items of income and gain requirement in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-
2(i)(4) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.
3.5 Nonrecourse Deductions. Nonrecourse Deductions for any Fiscal
----------------------
Year shall be allocated to the Partners in the same ratios that Net Profits are
allocated for the Fiscal Year in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section
1.704-2(b)(1).
9
3.6 Partner Nonrecourse Deductions. Partner Nonrecourse Deductions
------------------------------
for any Fiscal Year shall be allocated 100% to the Partner that bears the
economic risk of loss (as defined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(b))
with respect to the Partner Nonrecourse Debt to which such Partner Nonrecourse
Deductions are attributable in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section
1.704-2(i). If more than one Partner bears the economic risk of loss with
respect to a Partner Nonrecourse Debt, such Partner Nonrecourse Deductions
attributable thereto shall be allocated between or among such Partners in
accordance with the ratios in which they share such economic risk of loss.
3.7 Section 754 Adjustments. To the extent an adjustment to the
-----------------------
adjusted basis of any Partnership asset pursuant to Section 734(b) of the Code
or Section 743(c) of the Code is required, pursuant to Treasury Regulations
Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m), to be taken into account in determining Capital
Accounts, the amount of such adjustment to Capital Accounts shall be treated as
an item of gain (if the adjustment increases the basis of the asset) or loss (if
the adjustment decreases such basis) and such gain or loss shall be specially
allocated to the Partners in a manner consistent with the manner in which their
Adjusted Capital Accounts are required to be adjusted pursuant to Treasury
Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m).
3.8 Tax Allocations; Section 704(c). (a) Except as provided in
-------------------------------
subsection (b) below, the income, gains, losses, credits and deductions
recognized by the Partnership shall be allocated among the Partners, for U.S.
federal, state and local income tax purposes, to the extent permitted under the
Code and the Treasury Regulations, in the same manner that each such item
affects the balances in the Partners' Capital Accounts.
(b) In accordance with Section 704(c) of the Code and the Treasury
Regulations thereunder, income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to any
property contributed to the capital of the Partnership shall, solely for tax
10
purposes, be allocated among the Partners so as to take account of any variation
between the adjusted basis of such property to the Partnership for federal
income tax purposes and its fair market value as determined by the General
Partners.
3.9 Distributions. The General Partners may from time to time by
-------------
unanimous consent declare distributions of cash or other Partnership property.
Such distributions shall be made or applied as follows:
(a) First, all distributions received from the Subsidiaries for
Permitted Expenses shall be distributed in a manner designed to permit payment
of such expenses.
(b) Following the Partnership's distribution of amounts pursuant to
Section 3.9(a) above, the Partnership shall make all other distributions in the
following order of priority:
(i) to the extent that each of CAC, Cencom Cable and CCT has a
positive balance in its Preferred Capital Account, (x) amounts distributed
-
to the Partnership by CCE I, L.P., to the extent not previously applied
pursuant to subsection (a) above, shall be distributed to CAC and Cencom
Cable to the extent of, and pro rata in accordance with, the positive
balances in their respective Preferred Capital Accounts and (y) amounts
-
distributed to the Partnership by CCE II, L.P., to the extent not
previously applied pursuant to subsection (a) above, shall be distributed
to CCT to the extent of the positive balance in its Preferred Capital
Account;
(ii) to the extent that any Partner has a positive balance in its
Preferred Capital Account, to any such Partner having a positive balance in
its Preferred Capital Account to the extent of, and pro rata in accordance
with, such positive Preferred Capital Account balances;
11
(iii) to the Partners until each such Partner shall have received
amounts pursuant to this clause (iii) sufficient to place such Partner in
the same position it would have been in had the preceding clause (i) or
(ii) not been in this Agreement and pro rata among such Partners in
accordance with their respective Percentage Interests; and
(iv) thereafter, to the Partners in accordance with their Percentage
Interests.
3.10 Accounting Method. The books of account of the Partnership shall
-----------------
be kept pursuant to the accrual method of accounting. Except to the extent
required by law, the Partnership shall not change its accounting principles in a
manner adverse to any Partner without the consent of such Partner.
3.11 Certain Federal Income Tax Matters. The Partners understand and
----------------------------------
intend that under the Code the Partnership constitutes a "limited
partnership." CCT shall be the "tax matters partner" of the Partnership
pursuant to Section 6231(a)(7) of the Code. Each Partner hereby consents to
such designation and agrees that upon the request of CCT it will execute,
certify, acknowledge, deliver, swear to, file and record at the appropriate
public offices such documents as may be necessary or appropriate to evidence
such consent.
3.12 Election under Section 754. The General Partners, on behalf of
--------------------------
the Partnership, may in their sole discretion file an election under Section 754
of the Code in accordance with the procedures set forth in the applicable
Treasury Regulations.
3.13 Tax Withholdings. The Partnership shall at all times be entitled
----------------
to make payments with respect to any Partner in amounts required to discharge
any legal obligation of the Partnership pursuant to any provision of the Code
or any other tax provision or any provision enacted in
12
the future imposing a similar obligation on the Partnership to withhold or make
payments to any governmental authority with respect to any U.S. federal, state
and local tax liability of such Partner arising as a result of such Partner's
interest in the Partnership. Each such payment shall be deemed to be a loan by
the Partnership to such Partner and shall not be deemed to be a distribution.
The amount of such payments made with respect to any Partner, plus interest at
an annual rate equal to the interest rate publicly announced by Toronto Dominion
(Texas), Inc. from time to time as its base rate on each such amount from the
date of each such payment until such amount is repaid to the Partnership, shall
be repaid to the Partnership by (i) deduction from the current or next
-
succeeding distribution or distributions otherwise payable to such Partner
pursuant to this Agreement or (ii) earlier payment of such amounts and interest
--
by the Partner to the Partnership.

Partnership. No General Partner shall be compensated for its services as a
General Partner of the Partnership.

Partners shall have no authority to do any act in contravention of this
Agreement or of the Act.

affiliate (collectively, the "Indemnified Persons") shall be liable, directly or
indirectly, to the Partnership or any Partner for any act or omission (in
relation to the Partnership or this Agreement) taken or omitted by such
Indemnified Person in good faith, provided that such act or omission did not
--------
constitute gross negligence, fraud, willful violation of the law, willful
violation of this Agreement or reckless disregard of the duties of such
Indemnified Person.
7.2 Indemnification of General Partners. The Partnership shall, to

the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, indemnify and hold harmless each

action, suit or other proceeding, whether civil or criminal, before any court or
administrative body in which such Indemnified Person may be or may have been
involved, as a party or otherwise, or with which such Indemnified Person may be
or may have been threatened, while acting as such Indemnified Person, provided
--------
that no indemnity shall be payable hereunder against any liability incurred by
such Indemnified Person by reason of gross negligence, fraud, willful violation
of the law, willful violation of this Agreement, reckless disregard of the
duties of such Indemnified Person or with respect to any matter as to which such
Indemnified Person shall have been adjudicated not to have acted in good faith,
and provided further that as to any action, suit or other proceeding disposed of
--------
by settlement or a compromise payment, pursuant to a consent decree or
otherwise, no indemnification (whether for such payment or for any other Claim)
shall be provided unless there has been a determination that such compromise is
in or not opposed to the best interests of the Partnership and that such

fraud, willful violation of the law, willful violation of this Agreement or
reckless disregard of the duties of such Indemnified Person.

in defense or settlement of any Claim that may be subject to a right of
indemnification hereunder may be advanced by the Partnership prior to the final

action or proceeding involving a Claim referred to in this Article VII, such
Indemnified Person will, if a claim for indemnification in respect thereof is to
be made against the Partnership, give written notice to the Partnership of the
commencement of such action, provided that the failure of any Indemnified Person
--------
to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Partnership of its
obligations under this Article VII, except to the extent that the Partnership is
actually prejudiced by such failure to give notice. Each such Indemnified
Person shall keep the General Partners apprised of the progress of any such
proceeding.
