Certain
of
the statements and predictions contained in this report constitute
forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities

that
include or reference the words “believes,” “anticipates,” “plans,” “intends,”
“expects,” “will,” or any similar expression fall within the safe harbor for

national events that may affect the ability to provide services; changes in
the
regulatory environment; any rulings, orders or decrees that may be issued by
any
court or arbitrator; restrictions imposed under various credit facilities and
debt instruments; work stoppages caused by labor disputes; adjustments resulting
from year-end audit procedures; and Cincinnati Bell’s ability to develop and
launch new products and services. More information on potential risks and
uncertainties is available in recent filings with the Securities and Exchange
Commission, including Cincinnati Bell’s Form 10-K report, Form 10-Q reports and
Form 8-K reports. The forward-looking statements included in this report
represent Company estimates as of February 20, 2007. Cincinnati Bell
