MEMORANDUM
DATE: August 31, 2005
TO: City Council
FROM: Steven Nasby, Community and Economic Development Coordinator
RE: Proposed Business Assistance for Loparex Inc. - Iowa City Plant
ABN AMRO, a holding company with subsidiaries in commercial banking operations, investment
banking and other related financial activities, is in the final stages of acquiring Loparex Inc. The
Netherlands-based company has 97,000 employees in 60 countries, and coated-film operations
in North Carolina, Illinois and Alabama. Loparex's Iowa City Plant currently employs 20!
persons.
The Loparex facility in Iowa City is competing for several new product lines. The product lines
being sought are directly related to the creation and retention of !5 jobs (9 created and 6
retained). Loparex anticipates that approximately $6.32 million of new investment in
equipment and site improvements to the Iowa City Plant will be needed.
To assist them with this project, Loparex is asking the City to sponsor a Community Economic
Betterment Account (CEBA) application to the State of Iowa for $75,000. The State of Iowa
requires that local jurisdictions sponsor these applications and provide a minimum match of
50% for CEBA applications. In addition to the CEBA application, Loparex Corporation is also
eligible for the State's High Quality Jobs Program and job training resources. The total request
from the State of Iowa will be $217,500. A copy of the application forms submitted to the State
of Iowa and City of Iowa City are included in the September I Council information packet.
Loparex's application to the City of Iowa City for financial assistance is for a grant in the amount
of $75,000 to be used for equipment and machinery, which will enable them to create and
retain at least !5 jobs. Through this expansion, Loparex will also be making some site
improvements including a new 7,500 square foot addition. These new site improvements will
increase the tax base of the Iowa City plant
The Council Economic Development Committee will present their recommendations to the City
Council. Should the City Council approve local funding for the proposed project, Community
Development Block Grant (CDBG) Economic Development Fund or the Council Economic
Development Fund could be used for this project.
If you need additional information, please contact me at 356-5248 or via e-mail at Steven-

REPORT ON
REVIEW & ANALYSIS OF FCC FORM 1240 & 1205 [2005]
FILED BY
MCC IOWA, LLC
FOR
IOWA CITY, IOWA
JULY 29, 2005
SUMMARY
This is a review of Federal Communications Commission ["FCC"] Form 1240
dated April 29, 2005 and FCC Form 1205 dated August 1,2005, filed by MCC Iowa,
LLC ["Mediacom"] relating to the updating of permitted rates for basic tier cable
programming service ["BST"] and equipment installation and rental services which are
regulated by the City of Iowa City, Iowa ["City"]. These filings were transmitted by
Mediacom cover letter dated April 28, 2005, which indicates that price adjustments would
take effect on or about August 1, 2005. Mediacom also provided additional information
pertinent to its FCC Form 1205 filing by letter dated June 16, 2005. The conclusion of a
review of these materials is that while certain adjustments to Mediacom's calculations
and presentation are necessary and appropriate, Mediacom's maximum permitted rates for
BST programming services [FCC Form 1240] and the maximum permitted rates for
equipment installation and rental services [FCC Form 1205] have correctly been
determined pursuant to FCC regulations and the 2003 Rate Settlement Agreement
between Mediacom and the City [2003 Agreement]. The actual rates that Mediacom
proposes to charge as of August 1, 2005 do not exceed these maximum rates and
therefore are reasonable.
Mediacom's calculations determine a Maximum Permitted Rate ["MPR"] of
$11.8149 per subscriber per month [inclusive of FCC regulatory fees] for BST cable
programming services. However, this level was achieved artificially, rather than as a
direct result of the FCC Form 1240 methodology, by a one time adjustment which is
permitted by the 2003 Agreement. The purpose of this adjustment is to provide
Mediacom with the opportunity to charge an actual rate that is not less than $11.75 per
subscriber per month exclusive of FCC regulatory fees and City franchise fees.

Review of FCC Form 1240 & 1205

Mediacom is proposing notable reductions to some of the current rates for
equipment installation and rental services. As a result of an analysis of materials supplied
pursuant to a request for additional information, a slight error was discovered in
Mediacom's FCC From 1205 development. This had no substantial affect on the
maximum rate determinations. In any event, the rates proposed for equipment installation
and rental services do not exceed the maximum permitted rates determined pursuant to
the FCC regulations.
Accordingly, although Mediacom's FCC Form 1240 presentation must be adjusted
as described herein, the proposed "Operator Selected Rates" shown on Mediacom's
attachment titled "Summary of Maximum Permitted Rate/Operator Selected Rate" are
reasonable. The adjusted FCC Form 1240 and FCC Form 1205 are attached hereto and
are a part of this report.
ANALYSES
The following analyses of Mediacom 's filings assume the accuracy of the limited
information supplied by Mediacom in those filings. No additional information was
obtained for these analyses, and no audit of Mediacom 's books and records has been
done and none of its system cost assumptions has been checked against any independent
sources.
FCC FORM 1240
Pursuant to FCC regulations, cable system operators are permitted to adjust their
rates periodically for increases and decreases in costs relating to retransmission consent
fees, copyright fees, programming costs, certain cable specific taxes, franchise-related
costs, and FCC regulatory fees. On September 15, 1995, the FCC adopted new rules
giving regulated cable operators the option of filing for rate adjustments on an annual
basis instead of the existing quarterly system embodied in the FCC Form 1210.
Subsequently, the FCC issued its instructions and analytical model for the FCC Form
1240 which implements the latest filing rules. Mediacom's predecessor elected this
option in 1996.

Review of FCC Form 1240 & 1205
July 29, 2005
Page 3 of 7
The standard FCC Form 1240 annual filing system examines a stream of historical
costs that have occurred over a period of time, relates this to the revenues actually
collected during the same period and computes a monthly adjustment to apply to a future
rate. The rate to be charged in a future period is developed based on a projected 12
months of costs and the unit rate adjustment, or "true-up," from the historical period is
added to this projected period maximum permitted rate to determine the total maximum
permitted rate to be charged for the future 12 months period. Each subsequent annual
FCC Form 1240 filing will evaluate a historical, or "True-Up Period," and a future, or
"Projected Period," as part of the process of establishing a new maximum permitted rate
for a future 12 months period.
For its year 2005 FCC Form 1240 filing, Mediacom has chosen to establish rates
for the "Projected Period" of August 1, 2005 through July 31, 2006. Pursuant to ~ 2 of
the 2003 Agreement and the requirements Attachment A thereto, Mediacom must limit its
FCC Form 1240 analyses to only the Projected Period calculations and use certain input
factors to complete those calculations. Accordingly, the "True-Up Period" portion of the
FCC Form 1240 has not been developed in this filing. For this filing, the 2003
Agreement requires that the MPR for the Projected Period be established by first
removing from the prior MPR certain variable cost components to determine a Base Rate.
Estimates of these variable cost components for the Projected Period are determined
pursuant to FCC approved worksheets and these amounts are then combined with the
Base Rate to formulate the MPR that will apply uniformly over the Projected Period. If
necessary to support an actual charge of $11.75 per subscriber per month exclusive of
FCC fees and City franchise fees, the MPR may be increased by an artificial adjustment
in accordance with the 2003 Agreement. In this filing Mediacom elected to make such an
adjustment.
As the first step in the review and analysis of Mediacom's filing, the information
provided by Mediacom was checked against the 2003 Agreement and then was
incorporated into the official FCC Form 1240 analytical model. The results from this
analysis replicated the calculations provided by Mediacom in this year 2005 FCC Form
1240. While this demonstrates that Mediacom's filing is mathematically accurate, it was
noticed that Mediacom did not comply with the procedure specified in the 2003
Agreement for making the adjustment to achieve an MPR of $11.75 exclusive of the FCC
regulatory fee and City franchise fee. Moreover, various components of the Mediacom
FCC Form 1240 filing were inconsistent, and the levels of certain external costs were
curious.

Review of FCC Form 1240 & 1205
July 29, 2005
Page 4 of 7
The calculation of the 2005 MPR pursuant to the FCC Form 1240 methodology
alone produces an MPR which is less than $11.75 per subscriber per month. To take
advantage of the provisions of the 2003 Agreement that permits raising this MPR to
$11.75, Mediacom made an adjustment to Line I4 of the FCC Form 1240. This
adjustment produces a slight excess in the desired result on Line I9. While this excess
otherwise is de minimus, this adjustment was not made pursuant to the specification of
Attachment A of the 2003 Agreement. Attachment A requires that the adjustment be
made to Line 18, not Line 14.
Furthermore, Mediacom's Worksheet 7 [External Costs] includes the cost of the
FCC regulatory fee of $0.06 per subscriber [Line 708], and this cost is carried forward to
Line I7 and therefore is part of Mediacom's determination of Line I9, the MPR. But
Mediacom's Worksheet 8 [True-up Rate Charged] is stated as only $11.75 for each month
of the True-up Period as is Line A1 [Current Maximum Permitted Rate], levels that do
not include the FCC regulatory fee. This presentation is inconsistent. The Line 708
figure should not include the FCC regulatory fee if it is not shown on Line A1 or on
Worksheet 8. The Worksheet 8 omission is not a problem in this filing made pursuant to
the 2003 Agreement since the True-up Period adjustment is not factored into the
calculations, but this situation highlights the need for consistency in this filing as well as
in future filings.
With respect to this filing, the 2003 Agreement makes it clear that the objective of
the permitted adjustment is to raise the Line 19 MPR to $11.75 exclusive of FCC
regulatory fee and City franchise fee. Mediacom's methodology results in the Line I9
component being $11.8149, a figure that includes the FCC regulatory fee of $0.06. For
the purpose of this particular filing that includes the artificial adjustment on Line 18, the
FCC fee must be eliminated from Worksheet 7, Line 708, to assure consistency within the
filing and with the 2003 Agreement.
Mediacom's presentation of its external costs were not supported by any
supplementary materials or explanations. It was noted that the costs of programming
shown on Line 701 of Worksheet 7 for both the True-up and Projected Periods were some
40% of the amounts shown in the previous filing. This suggests that significant changes
to the channel line-up or numbers of channels occurred during the True-up Period and
were anticipated to remain during the Projected Period. However, the channel line-up
attachment provided with the FCC Form 1240 filing showed no changes. Also, the levels
City of Iowa City, Iowa
MCC Iowa, LLC
Review of FCC Form 1240 & 1205
July 29, 2005
Page 5 of 7
of franchise related costs shown on Line 707 were identical to those shown in the prior
filing for both the True-up and the Projected Periods.
While the levels of these external cost figures are curious, they have no affect on
the final determination of the maximum permitted rate due to the workings of the 2003
Agreement. Furthermore, these figures are submitted with a certification of accuracy
upon which the City may rely. Accordingly, it appeared unnecessary to investigate these
costs in more detail for the purposes of this particular filing and so no such additional
analyses were undertaken. However, it is appropriate to remind Mediacom that the FCC
Form 1240 instructions require justification for all of the external costs included on
Worksheet 7 and that additional supporting materials and/or explanations should be
included with its FCC Form 1240 filings.
The Mediacom FCC Form 1240 presentation was adjusted to reflect the above
described changes as follows: the FCC franchise fee cost has been eliminated from
Worksheet 7, Line 708 for consistency with Line A1 and Worksheet 8; Mediacom's Line
I4 adjustment was reversed; and, an adjustment of $0.2849 was introduced on Line 18.
The result is a Line 19 MPR of $11.75, exactly pursuant to the 2003 Agreement. This
adjusted FCC Form 1240 must be used by Mediacom for its next FCC Form 1240 filing
with the exception, if Mediacom desires, of including the FCC regulatory fee of $0.06
consistently within the filing [on Line Al, Line 708 and on Worksheet 8].
The proposed rate of $11.75 is consistent with the 2003 Agreement and it does not
exceed the MPR determined by the FCC Form 1240 as adjusted. Accordingly, this rate is
reasonable.
FCC Form 1205
The FCC Form 1205 is used to update charges for renting regulated equipment
[eg., remotes and converters], equipment installations [eg., house wiring, service drops,
extra outlets, service tier changes] and the Hourly Service Charge ["HSC"] for service
calls. Charges established pursuant to this form are based strictly upon the actual cost of
regulated equipment and installations plus a reasonable profit. The financial information
utilized in this form is to be derived directly from the operator's general ledger and
subsidiary records that are to be maintained in accordance with generally accepted
City of Iowa City, Iowa
MCC Iowa, LLC
Review of FCC Form 1240 & 1205

accounting principles. This form is required to be prepared and submitted on an annual
basis.
As with the Mediacom's FCC Form 1240, this review of Mediacom's FCC Form
1205 filing assumes the accuracy of the information supplied by Mediacom from its
financial books and records and related sources. No audit of Mediacom's books and
records has been done and none of its system cost assumptions has been checked against
any independent sources. As is permitted by FCC regulations, Mediacom's FCC Form
1205 aggregates costs for equipment and installations on a system-wide basis.
The information supplied by Mediacom has been incorporated into an official FCC
analytical model which provides the formulas and format for all the calculations required
for preparation and completion of the FCC Form 1205. It appears that Mediacom has
followed the FCC's analytical format and the results shown on the FCC Form 1205 filing
made by Mediacom match the results obtained from the official FCC analytical model
reconstructed with Mediacom supplied cost data for the purpose of this review.
However, as in prior filings, Mediacom has chosen not to include the minimal
level of supporting information required by the FCC Form 1205 filing instructions.
Among other informational requirements, these instructions provide that:
Note 1: If an expense amount is included on Schedule B for equipment sent out for repair, an appropriate
adjustment to the total labor hours reported on this Form must be made ........... In any case that
an amount is included on Schedule B for work sent out for repair, explain all the adjuslments
made on the Worksheet. This explanation must include the number of hours added on line 6
below as well as a description of and the number of hours added into the charges developed in
Steps C through E.
Mediacom has indicated that Schedule B category of"Other 1" includes costs for "Cont.
Labor &Conv. Maint." Thus, an adjustment to total labor hours must be made and
explained. Mediacom did not include any information with its filing to indicate that any
such adjustment was made or provide the necessary explanation of the adjustment if it
was made. Other missing explanations and the confusion resulting from the fact that the
filing date shown on the FCC Form 1205 was much later than the submission and
certification dates led to a decision to request additional information from Mediacom
regarding its FCC Form 1205 filing.

Mediacom provided a timely response to this request for additional information by
cover letter of June 16, 2005 which provided satisfactory explanations and additional
details regarding certain components of the FCC Form 1205 filing as well as a non-
material revised FCC Form 1205. In particular, it was demonstrated that Mediacom does,
indeed, make the required adjustment with respect to the costs of outside converter repair
and contractor services. However, it was discovered with this detail that an error had
been made in this calculation. The 2004 ledger item 520800 [outside contractor services]
of $4,682,908 apparently was slightly transposed to the figure of $4,628,908 for the
purpose of making the necessary adjustment. The correction of this error changes the
Hourly Service Charge determined in Step A from $36.0094 to $35.9915. Mediacom has
proposed to establish the Hourly Service Charge as $32.00, so there is no issue with this
change. Also, this correction causes no other material changes to the maximum permitted
rates determined by Mediacom's FCC Form 1205 filing for standard equipment
installations and rentals. Nonetheless, the fact that there was such an error demonstrates
the need for Mediacom to comply fully with the instructions for preparation of the FCC
Form 1205 by submitting the required supplemental and supporting information with its
annual filings.
In spite of this minor error, it appears Mediacom has determined its maximum
permitted rates for equipment installation and rentals in a fashion consistent with the FCC
regulations. The proposed rates for such services do not exceed the MPR determined by
the FCC Form 1205. Accordingly, these rates are reasonable.
CONCLUSION
Mediacom's choice of an "Operator Selected Rate" of $11.81 per subscriber per
month [inclusive of FCC regulatory charges which will be separately stated on subscriber
bills] to be effective as of August 1, 2005 is reasonable and is consistent with the 2003
Agreement. For the purposes of its next FCC Form 1240 filing, Mediacom should be
ordered to utilize the amended FCC Form 1240 developed by this review as the starting
point for its next FCC Form 1240 filing with the exception of including the FCC
regulatory fee of $0.06 consistently within the filing [on Line Al, Line 708 and
Worksheet 8] if it so desires. The rates and charges shown in Mediacom's FCC Form
1205 have been shown to be reasonable and these adjusted levels may be put into effect
on or about August 1, 2005, as requested.
