Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On April 17, 2006, Charter Communications, Inc. ("Charter"), the indirect parent company and manager of Renaissance Media Group LLC, Renaissance Media (Louisiana) LLC, Renaissance Media (Tennessee) LLC and Renaissance Media Capital Corporation, amended its 2005 Executive Cash Award Plan for eligible participants hired in 2006. As originally adopted, the Plan provided that each participant be granted an award which represents an opportunity to receive cash payments based on the participant's salary in 2005 through 2009. As amended, the Plan will provide that each new participant hired in 2006, be granted an award based on the participant's salary in 2006 through 2010. Thus, an award for any new participant will be credited in book entry format to a participant's account in an amount equal to 100% of a participant's base salary on the date of Plan approval in 2006 and 20% of participant's base salary in each year 2007 through 2010, based on that participant's base salary as of May 1 of the applicable year. The Plan awards will vest at the rate of 50% of the plan award balance at the end of 2008 and 100% of the plan award balance at the end of 2010. Other provisions of the Plan remain the same.
 
The 2005 Executive Cash Award Plan, amended for 2006, is attached as Exhibit 10.1.
