SCHEDULE D, PART X, LINE 2: ASC 740 FOOTNOTE THE COMPANY [CABLE TELEVISION LABORATORIES, INC.] IS A QUALIFIED NOT-FOR-PROFIT, NONSTOCK MEMBERSHIP CORPORATION AND IS EXEMPT FROM FEDERAL AND STATE INCOME TAXES ON INCOME RELATED TO ITS EXEMPT PURPOSE UNDER THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 501(A) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE (IRC) AS AN ORGANIZATION DESCRIBED IN IRC SECTION 501(C)(6). THE COMPANY FOLLOWS FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS BOARD (FASB) ACCOUNTING STANDARDS CODIFICATION (ASC) 740, INCOME TAXES, WHICH PRESCRIBES A RECOGNITION THRESHOLD AND MEASUREMENT REQUIREMENTS FOR FINANCIAL STATEMENT RECOGNITION AND MEASUREMENT OF A TAX POSITION TAKEN OR EXPECTED TO BE TAKEN IN A TAX RETURN. IN ADDITION, THE STANDARD PROVIDES GUIDANCE ON RECOGNITION, CLASSIFICATION, ACCOUNTING IN INTERIM PERIODS, AND DISCLOSURE REQUIREMENTS FOR UNCERTAIN TAX PROVISIONS. ANY INCOME GENERATED BY THE COMPANY FROM ACTIVITIES UNRELATED TO ITS EXEMPT PURPOSE IS SUBJECT TO FEDERAL AND STATE INCOME TAXES. THE DETERMINATION OF WHETHER THE COMPANY'S ACTIVITIES ARE CONSIDERED EXEMPT REQUIRES SIGNIFICANT JUDGMENT ON THE PART OF MANAGEMENT. HOWEVER, THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE (IRS) ISSUED A PRIVATE LETTER RULING IN WHICH IT CONCLUDED THAT CERTIFICATION AND CERTAIN INVESTING ACTIVITIES ARE RELATED TO THE COMPANY'S EXEMPT PURPOSE. THE COMPANY RECORDS INCOME TAX LIABILITIES ON INCOME-PRODUCING ACTIVITIES WHEN APPROPRIATE. THE CURRENT PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES REPRESENTS ACTUAL OR ESTIMATED AMOUNTS PAYABLE OR REFUNDABLE ON TAX RETURNS FILED OR TO BE FILED EACH YEAR. DEFERRED TAX ASSETS AND LIABILITIES ARE RECOGNIZED FOR THE FUTURE TAX CONSEQUENCES ATTRIBUTABLE TO DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS CARRYING AMOUNTS OF EXISTING ASSETS AND LIABILITIES AND THEIR RESPECTIVE TAX BASES AND OPERATING LOSS AND TAX CREDIT CARRYFORWARDS. DEFERRED TAX ASSETS AND LIABILITIES ARE MEASURED USING ENACTED TAX RATES EXPECTED TO APPLY TO TAXABLE INCOME IN THE YEARS IN WHICH THOSE TEMPORARY DIFFERENCES ARE EXPECTED TO BE RECOVERED OR SETTLED. THE EFFECT ON DEFERRED TAX ASSETS AND LIABILITIES OF A CHANGE IN TAX RATES IS RECOGNIZED IN OPERATIONS IN THE PERIOD THAT INCLUDES THE ENACTMENT DATE. THE OVERALL CHANGE IN DEFERRED TAX ASSETS AND LIABILITIES FOR THE PERIOD MEASURES THE DEFERRED TAX EXPENSE OR BENEFIT FOR THE PERIOD. THE MEASUREMENT OF DEFERRED TAX ASSETS MAY BE REDUCED BY A VALUATION ALLOWANCE BASED ON MANAGEMENT'S ASSESSMENT OF AVAILABLE EVIDENCE IF DEEMED MORE LIKELY THAN NOT THAT SOME OR ALL OF THE DEFERRED TAX ASSETS WILL NOT BE REALIZED. THE OVERALL CHANGE IN DEFERRED TAX ASSETS AND LIABILITIES FOR THE PERIOD MEASURES THE DEFERRED TAX EXPENSE OR BENEFIT FOR THE PERIOD. THE MEASUREMENT OF DEFERRED TAX ASSETS MAY BE REDUCED BY A VALUATION ALLOWANCE BASED ON MANAGEMENT'S ASSESSMENT OF AVAILABLE EVIDENCE IF DEEMED MORE LIKELY THAN NOT THAT SOME OR ALL OF THE DEFERRED TAX ASSETS WILL NOT BE REALIZED.

GENERAL STATEMENT 1 FORM 990 PART III LINE 1: ORGANIZATION'S MISSION CABLELABS CO-INNOVATES UNEXPECTED SOLUTIONS THAT TRANSFORM AND INSPIRE OUR INDUSTRY. WE STRIVE TO DELIVER INNOVATIONS THAT ENABLE OUR MEMBERS TO BE THE PROVIDER OF CHOICE IN THEIR MARKETS.
GENERAL STATEMENT 2 PART III, LINE 4: STATEMENT OF PROGRAM SERVICES FOUNDED IN 1988 BY CABLE OPERATING COMPANIES, CABLE TELEVISION LABORATORIES, INC. (CABLELABS OR THE COMPANY) IS A NONPROFIT RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT CONSORTIUM THAT IS DEDICATED TO CREATING AND LEVERAGING INNOVATIVE IDEAS THAT SIGNIFICANTLY IMPACT ITS CABLE OPERATOR MEMBERS' BUSINESS THROUGHOUT THE WORLD BY ALLOWING THEM TO BE THE PROVIDERS OF CHOICE IN THE MARKETS THEY SERVE. THE COMPANY'S KEY OBJECTIVES ARE TO PROVIDE A CENTRAL SOURCE OF TIMELY INFORMATION ABOUT TECHNICAL DEVELOPMENTS OF INTEREST TO THE INDUSTRY; PLAN, PERFORM, OR FUND RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS THAT ALIGN WITH THE OVERALL INTERESTS OF THE CABLE INDUSTRY; FACILITATE THE TRANSFER OF RELEVANT TECHNOLOGY AND BEST PRACTICES FOR DEPLOYING NEW TECHNOLOGY TO MEMBER COMPANIES AND PROVIDERS TO THE INDUSTRY; AND PROVIDE SERVICES THAT PROMOTE INTEROPERABILITY OF RELEVANT TECHNOLOGIES SO THAT THEY ARE SUCCESSFULLY DEPLOYED BY MEMBER COMPANIES. CABLELABS' MEMBERSHIP COMPRISES MAJOR CABLE OPERATORS WORLDWIDE. THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS COMPRISES TWELVE REPRESENTATIVES FROM THE MEMBERSHIP, TWO AT-LARGE REPRESENTATIVES ELECTED BY ALL MEMBERS, AND THREE NONVOTING REPRESENTATIVES. THE COMPANY'S ACTIVITIES INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING MAJOR INITIATIVES: (A) APPLICATION AND SECURITY TECHNOLOGIES THE APPLICATION AND SECURITY TECHNOLOGIES (AST) DEPARTMENT LEADS RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EFFORTS FOCUSED ON INNOVATING CORE TECHNOLOGIES FOR VIDEO DELIVERY, USER INTERFACE PRESENTATION, "INTERNET OF THINGS" (IOT), AND SECURITY. THE PRIMARY DELIVERABLES IN 2015 WERE COMPLETION OF DIGITAL LIVING NETWORK ALLIANCE (DLNA) SPECIFICATIONS, TESTING PROGRAM AND REFERENCE DEVICE DEVELOPMENT TO FACILITATE VIDEO DISTRIBUTION TO CONSUMER ELECTRONICS DEVICES IN THE HOME USING INTERNET PROTOCOL (IP), EARLY INVESTIGATION AND PROTOTYPE DEVELOPMENT FOR IOT SUPPORT IN THE HOME, DEVELOPMENT OF TRANSPORT TECHNOLOGY SPECIFICATIONS TO SUPPORT THE TRANSITION TO ALL IP VIDEO DELIVERY, AND THE TECHNICAL REPORTS DOCUMENTING THE EVALUATION OF NEXT GENERATION VIDEO FORMATS. CABLELABS HAS BEEN WORKING TO EXTEND THE DLNA SPECIFICATIONS THROUGH A COMMERCIAL VIDEO PROFILE SET OF GUIDELINES (BRANDED AS VIDIPATH BY DLNA) SO THAT DLNA TECHNOLOGIES CAN BE USED TO DELIVER ALL OF THE PRIMARY CABLE VIDEO SERVICES TO CONSUMER ELECTRONIC DEVICES OVER HOME NETWORKS IN A SECURE AND STANDARDIZED FASHION. CENTRAL TO THIS EFFORT, CABLELABS SUPPORTED THE SUCCESSFUL LAUNCH OF THE DLNA VIDIPATH CERTIFICATION PROGRAM THROUGH THE DEVELOPMENT AND CONTRIBUTION OF A VIDIPATH SERVER REFERENCE DEVICE. THE VIDIPATH GUIDELINES WERE ALSO UPDATED IN PREPARATION FOR CERTIFICATION LAUNCH BY ADDRESSING ISSUES THAT WERE EXPOSED AS A RESULT OF INTEROPERABILITY TESTING. CABLELABS WILL BE PROVIDING SOME ONGOING SUPPORT FOR THE VIDIPATH PROGRAM AS A TECHNOLOGY MAINTENANCE EFFORT. IOT IS A TERM OF ART FOR AN EXPLOSION IN THE NUMBER OF DEVICES THAT ARE BECOMING CONNECTED TO THE INTERNET. THE PROLIFERATION OF CONNECTED DEVICES IS DEFINING THE NEXT STAGE IN THE INTERNET'S EVOLUTION AND WILL RESULT IN THE CREATION OF A NEW GENERATION OF CONSUMER AND BUSINESS ORIENTED APPLICATIONS THAT COULD TOUCH NEARLY EVERY FACET OF PEOPLE'S LIVES. MANY TECHNICAL QUESTIONS NEED TO BE ANSWERED BEFORE THE IOT WILL REACH ITS FULL POTENTIAL. CABLELABS HAS BEEN EXPLORING TECHNOLOGY OPTIONS TO HELP OUR MEMBERS PARTICIPATE SUCCESSFULLY IN THE EMERGING IOT FIELD AND WE DELIVERED A PROOF-OF-CONCEPT TECHNOLOGY APPROACH THAT INTEGRATES DIFFERENT IOT STANDARDS AND ECOSYSTEMS INTO A COMMON FRAMEWORK. STARTING WITH UPNP AND HUE, THE PROOF-OF-CONCEPT WAS EXPANDED TO INCLUDE TWO ADDITIONAL ECOSYSTEMS, ALLSEEN AND THE OPEN INTERCONNECT CONSORTIUM (OIC). CABLELABS CONTINUES TO ACTIVELY RESEARCH THE TECHNICAL IMPLICATIONS FOR CABLE NETWORKS IN ORDER TO HELP CABLE OPERATORS PREPARE FOR AND COMPETE EFFECTIVELY IN THIS DEVELOPING AREA. AST HAD SEVERAL PROJECTS THAT FOCUSED ON THE INDUSTRY'S TRANSITION TO ALL IP VIDEO DELIVERY. OF THOSE, A PROJECT FOR IP MULTICAST AND ONE FOR CONVERGED POLICY, SESSION, AND RESOURCE MANAGEMENT LOOKED INTO THE SCALABILITY OF IP VIDEO DELIVERY ON CABLE OPERATORS' NETWORKS. IN ADDITION, WE EXECUTED A PROJECT TO TEST THE COMPRESSION EFFICIENCY OF LEADING VIDEO ENCODER PRODUCTS. IMPROVED COMPRESSION TECHNOLOGIES WILL ALLOW CABLE OPERATORS TO MORE EFFICIENTLY UTILIZE THEIR BROADBAND RESOURCES TO DELIVER VIDEO AT TODAY'S QUALITY WITH LESS BANDWIDTH OR TO DELIVER EVEN HIGHER QUALITY VIDEO WITH THE SAME AMOUNT OF BANDWIDTH. ONGOING WORK AT CABLELABS IN THE AREA OF ADVANCED VIDEO FACTORS, SUCH AS ULTRA HD, HIGH FRAME RATES, HIGH DYNAMIC RANGE, AND WIDE COLOR GAMUT IS HELPING THE INDUSTRY PREPARE FOR SIGNIFICANT ENHANCEMENTS IN OVERALL VIDEO QUALITY AND USER EXPERIENCE. THE APPLICATION AND SECURITY TECHNOLOGIES TEAM ALSO LEADS A NUMBER OF TECHNICAL PROJECTS AIMED AT ENHANCING THE SECURITY OF SERVICES DELIVERED BY CABLE OPERATORS. THE FOUNDATION OF THE CABLE INDUSTRY'S SECURITY INFRASTRUCTURE IS THE CABLELABS PUBLIC KEY INFRASTRUCTURE (PKI), WHICH ALLOWS CABLE OPERATORS TO AUTHENTICATE DEVICES CONNECTED TO THEIR NETWORKS AND ENABLES THE SECURE DELIVERY OF CABLE SERVICES TO SUBSCRIBERS. OTHER AREAS OF FOCUS INCLUDE TECHNOLOGY RESEARCH, SECURITY ANALYSIS, ARCHITECTURE & SPECIFICATION DEVELOPMENT, CERTIFICATE PKI DESIGN & MANAGEMENT, CABLE NETWORK SECURITY ALERTS, AND SUPPORTING THE CERTIFICATION TESTING PROGRAM. ADDITIONALLY, THE TEAM ANTICIPATES THE SECURITY NEEDS OF FUTURE CABLE SERVICES AND MAPS THE REQUIREMENTS TO EMERGING CABLELABS SPECIFICATIONS, INCLUDING IOT SECURITY AS MORE CONNECTED DEVICES EMERGE. A STRATEGIC GOAL OF THE CABLELABS SECURITY TEAM IS TO CONTINUALLY IMPROVE THE SECURITY OF CABLE VOICE, VIDEO, DATA, AND WEB SERVICES THROUGH INNOVATIVE AND STANDARDS BASED SECURITY SOLUTIONS. (B) BUSINESS TECHNOLOGIES BUSINESS TECHNOLOGIES IS FOCUSED ON PROVIDING TECHNICAL ALIGNMENT BETWEEN MEMBER BUSINESS SERVICES STRATEGY AND BUSINESS NEEDS. THE RAPID GROWTH OF COMMERCIAL SERVICES BUSINESS HAS DRIVEN THE NEED FOR ACCESS TO DATA THAT PROVIDES KEY INSIGHTS THAT DRIVE BUSINESS AND TECHNOLOGY INNOVATIONS. LEVERAGING GLOBAL STANDARDS, BUSINESS TECHNOLOGIES WORKS WITH MEMBERS AND LEADING INDUSTRY SUPPLIERS TO DEVELOP AND APPLY THE PROJECT ARTIFACTS THAT HELP ENABLE THE COMPANY'S MEMBERS TO PROVIDE EXISTING AND NEW PRODUCT OFFERINGS TO SMALL, MEDIUM, AND ENTERPRISE BUSINESSES. (C) INNOVATION OFFICE THE INNOVATION OFFICE IS CHARTERED TO SPONSOR AND PROMOTE THE IDENTIFICATION AND DEVELOPMENT OF INNOVATIONS THAT CAN DELIVER MARKET AND TECHNOLOGICAL BREAKTHROUGHS. THE FOCUS OF THE INNOVATION OFFICE'S WORK IS THE PURSUIT OF IDEAS WITH TRANSFORMATIONAL MARKET POTENTIAL IN THE NEXT 3-8 YEARS. CABLELABS MAINTAINS AN ACTIVE PORTFOLIO OF PROJECTS, WHICH ARE MANAGED USING A GATED STAGE PROCESS THAT RESULTS IN PERIODIC DECISIONS TO PURSUE OR DISCONTINUE PROJECTS. DURING THE PAST FISCAL YEAR, WE SAW SUBSTANTIAL TURNOVER IN OUR PORTFOLIO AS WE MANAGED AS MANY AS 11 PROJECTS, FIVE OF WHICH RESULTED FROM NEW PROPOSALS GENERATED DURING THE YEAR. AS PART OF OUR OUTREACH TO MEMBERS AND OUR ECOSYSTEM, WE CONDUCTED TWO WEEK-LONG INNOVATION BOOT CAMPS FOR 28 PARTICIPANTS. THESE PROVIDED INTENSIVE, HANDS-ON TRAINING ON PROVEN INNOVATION METHODOLOGIES, AS WELL AS IMMERSION IN THE SILICON VALLEY EXPERIENCE DURING WHICH PARTICIPANTS ENGAGED SUBJECT MATTER EXPERTS, CUSTOMERS, AND TECHNOLOGY & DESIGN INNOVATORS AS THEY DEVELOPED INNOVATION PROPOSALS FOR CURRENT AND EMERGING TECHNOLOGIES AFFECTING CABLE CUSTOMERS. IN PARALLEL, THE INNOVATION OFFICE INITIATED A NUMBER OF ACTIVITIES AND INNOVATION PITCH EVENTS TO PROMOTE GRASS-ROOTS INNOVATION BY EMPLOYEES AND TO PROMOTE CABLE AS A PLATFORM FOR INNOVATION. RESULTS INCLUDED ENGAGEMENTS BETWEEN MEMBERS' VENTURE CAPITAL ARMS AND SILICON VALLEY STARTUPS, AS WELL AS ABOUT A DOZEN EFFORTS RANGING FROM PRODUCTIVITY IMPROVEMENTS WITHIN OUR LAB SERVICES GROUP TO THE APPLICATION/TESTING OF EMERGING WIRELESS NETWORKING AND IOT TECHNOLOGIES. (D) LAB SERVICES THE LAB SERVICES GROUP'S PRIMARY ACTIVITIES ARE CERTIFICATION TESTING, INTEROPERABILITY EVENTS, MEMBER-DEVICE TESTING, AND DEVELOPMENT LAB SERVICES. THE GROUP ALSO SUPPORTS THE COMPANY'S RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT INITIATIVES; PROVIDING EXPERTISE FOR DEVELOPMENT OF NEW TECHNOLOGIES AND DEVELOPING PROCESSES FOR TESTING THESE NEW TECHNOLOGIES. THE GROUP TESTS AND EVALUATES EQUIPMENT FOR COMPLIANCE WITH THE APPLICABLE COMPANY SPECIFICATIONS USING PROCEDURES THAT HAVE BEEN DEVELOPED IN COOPERATION WITH THE MANUFACTURERS OF THE EQUIPMENT DEVELOPED PURSUANT TO SUCH SPECIFICATIONS AND CABLELABS' MEMBERS' REQUIREMENTS. THE LAB SERVICES GROUP IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE LABORATORY FACILITIES AT CABLELABS, AS WELL AS OTHER TESTING RELATED ACTIVITIES OUTSIDE OF THE LAB. THIS INCLUDES HOSTING INTEROPERABILITY EVENTS WHICH ARE DESIGNED TO PROVIDE NEUTRAL GROUND FOR MANUFACTURERS TO TEST HOW EFFECTIVELY THEIR PRODUCTS WORK WITH EACH OTHER; AND HOSTING DEVELOPMENT LAB ACTIVITIES TO ACCELERATE MAN

IF AN EMPLOYEE VIOLATES THIS POLICY, CABLELABS, IN ITS DISCRETION, MAY TAKE WHATEVER STEPS AND/OR DISCIPLINARY ACTIONS IT BELIEVES APPROPRIATE TO REMEDY THE VIOLATION, UP TO AND INCLUDING DISMISSAL.
GENERAL STATEMENT 7 PART VI, SECTION B, LINES 15A & 15B: POLICIES CABLELABS IS A 501(C)(6) TRADE ASSOCIATION WHOSE PRIMARY OBJECTIVES ARE TO GATHER, ASSESS, AND DISSEMINATE TECHNICAL INFORMATION OF STRATEGIC IMPORTANCE TO THE CABLE TELEVISION INDUSTRY, TO IDENTIFY,PLAN, ENGAGE IN AND FUND THE DEVELOPMENT OF NEW TECHNOLOGIES FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE INDUSTRY, DIRECTLY OR IN PARTNERSHIP WITH OTHERS, AND TO TRANSFER SUCH TECHNOLOGIES TO THE INDUSTRY THROUGH REPORTS, SEMINARS, WORKSHOPS, LICENSES, LOANS OF PERSONNEL AND OTHER APPROPRIATE MEANS. THE HIGHLY TECHNICAL AND SPECIALIZED NATURE OF THESE ACTIVITIES REQUIRES CABLELABS TO HIRE HIGHLY EDUCATED AND TRAINED PROFESSIONALS EXPERIENCED IN THE INDUSTRY FROM A VERY COMPETITIVE EMPLOYMENT POOL OFFERING CANDIDATES SIMILAR OPPORTUNITIES AT MARKET SALARIES. THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE OF CABLELABS LOOKS AT THE COMPENSATION OF THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER OF ANOTHER INDUSTRY TRADE ASSOCIATION ALONG WITH CERTAIN SENIOR TECHNICAL POSITIONS (E.G. CHIEF TECHNOLOGY OFFICERS) WITHIN THEIR OWN MEMBER COMPANIES (E.G. COMCAST OR TIME WARNER CABLE). WHEN A NEW CEO WAS HIRED, THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE ALSO REVIEWED AN INDUSTRY EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION SURVEY FOR COMPARABLE POSITIONS AND CREATED CONTEMPORANEOUS SUBSTANTIAL DOCUMENTATION OF COMPENSATION IN AN EXECUTED EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT WHICH WAS ALSO REVIEWED BY THE CHAIRMAN OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE. ANNUAL SALARY INCREASES AND BONUSES, IF APPLICABLE, ARE DETERMINED BY THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE. SALARY INCREASES ARE BASED ON MARKET CONDITIONS AND GENERALLY RANGE BETWEEN 2 AND 3 PERCENT. THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER DETERMINES THE COMPENSATION OF THE ORGANIZATION'S CHIEF OPERATING OFFICER. COMPENSATION FOR THE OTHER OFFICERS AND KEY EMPLOYEES IS SET BY THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER, CHIEF OPERATING OFFICER, AND THE VICE PRESIDENT OF TALENT SOLUTIONS. COMPREHENSIVE SALARY SURVEYS ARE COMPLETED EVERY FEW YEARS. IN THE INTERVENING YEARS, SALARY ADJUSTMENTS ARE BASED ON GENERAL MARKET TRENDS AND SURVEYS OF CABLELABS' MEMBER COMPANIES.
GENERAL STATEMENT 8 PART VI, SECTION C, LINE 19: DISCLOSURE CABLELABS DOES NOT MAKE ITS GOVERNING DOCUMENTS, CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY, OR FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AVAILABLE TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC.
