4 Kabel Deutschland from Deutsche Bundespost to Triple Play Since 1982 Roll-Out of the German CATV network by Deutsche Bundespost Start of CATV in Germany with first regional pilots Deregulation of telecoms sector with telecoms act (TKG) Separation of Deutsche Telekom (DTAG) cable operations into Kabel Deutschland GmbH (KDG). Since 2000 March 2003 Reorganisation of cable operations into 9 regional operations and a service company and sale of cable networks in the regions of Northrhine-Westfalia (Ish), Hesse (Iesy) and Baden-Württemberg (KabelBW) A consortium comprising of Apax Partners, Goldman Sachs Capital Partners and Providence Equity Partners acquires the remaining cable networks in six regions from DTAG KDG moves to Munich and launches new digital services. October 2005 Launch of Triple Play service in entire regions of Rhineland-Palatine & Saarland and more than 15 additional cities (some 3.5 mill. homes passed upgraded). S. 4

Fact Report 2004 of TNS Infratest GmbH & Co.KG for German Ministry of Economics S. 7
8 Kabel Deutschland Broadband and Triple Play Missed Opportunity? Why is KDG such a late runner with regard to broadband internet and triple play? (1) Historic reasons - until 2003 part of German telecoms incumbent. (2) Artificial market structure in Germany. - Separation between so-called NE3 and NE4 networks. - Implemented for political reasons to promote SMEs in the 1980s. Thus KDG has only direct relations to a rough third of its customers. Often limited and only indirect control of investment and upgrade decisions. Without knowing the customer you cannot sell new products or bundles. Differentiation not only between homes passed and homes connected, but also with regard to homes marketable for new products and bundles (Digital & Pay TV, Internet, Telephony) S. 8
9 Obstacles from Regulatory and Competition Policy German Media Regulation is in the domain of the Federal States and despite a Media State Treaty fragmented and not very much harmonized. KDG has to deal with 12 out of 15 federal media regulators plus German telecoms regulator BNetzA (infrastructure regulation). No clear delineation between media and telecoms regulation with regard to infrastructure. The Must Carry legacy: must carry rules sometimes make up 100% of total analogue programming and may be carried over to digital programming in future as well. Copyright Law: right for digital distribution of all analogue programming is ambiguous and may be enforced via courts only. Currently no clear regulatory framework for cable telephony and VoIP services, i.e. emergency calls and nomadic usage. The Federal Cartel Office gave up only in recent time and only partially it s blocking approach of further industry consolidation both within NE3 and for NE3/NE4 operators. S. 9
10 Level Playing Field for Cable Operators vs. competing Infrastructures? Media regulation has to be streamlined and harmonized on European and national scale. Delineation between content and infrastructure must be clear in order to avoid double regulation. Must-Carry legacy has to be cut back instead of application to digital distribution on infrastructures. Asymmetric regulation in favor of satellite, DTT or DSL has to be removed and prevented. Telecoms or media regulation preferring traditional PSTN networks in contrast to cable violates infrastructure neutrality. Increasing competitive pressure for cable operators in traditional broadcasting markets (end customers, feed-in, wholesale/signal-delivery) thus industry consolidation should not be blocked based on historic market analysis. Further integration between NE3 and NE4 is essential in order to provide scale and scope for successful roll-out of internet, triple play and other bundles. S. 10
11 What Role for Cable as Broadband Infrastructure? Cable networks are the natural players for triple play and even X-play. Bandwidth and QoS can easily be scaled and upgraded. Cable operators can capitalize on their content experience and leverage their existing relationships to new digital, interactive as well as internet offers. Choice and quality of TV programming are at least in the foreseeable future still superior to TVoDSL or IPTV. Cable operators already have the technological capabilities and the supply chain links for new services like VoD, interactive TV or HDTV. Even mobile or wireless (portable) services can be integrated into CATV bundles using cooperations with mobile providers or WiFi/WiMAX access. Window of Opportunity with regard to broadband growth is open at least for the next months. Within a favourable framework in Germany a significant fraction of the growing broadband market could be achieved by cable operators like in other countries. S. 11
