Depending on the terms of each customer's promotional package, these rate changes may not impact a customer
until their current promotional package expires.
z Mediacom bills monthly in advance. As a result, the changes for the Local Broadcast Surcharge are based on our
best estimate of the cost increases our company will incur for broadcast programming. Mediacom will "true up"
customer bills in a subsequent month if it turns out that our estimate was too high or too low.
