If any such entity engages in businesses other than video programming-related activities, it may request the Commission to waive attribution for any officer or director whose duties and responsibilities are wholly unrelated to the entity’s video-programming activities. The officers and directors of a parent company of a videoprogramming business, with an attributable interest in any such subsidiary entity, shall be deemed to have a cognizable interest in the subsidiary unless the duties and responsibilities of the officer or director involved are wholly unrelated to the video-programming subsidiary and a statement properly documenting this fact is submitted to the Commission. This statement may be included on the Licensee Qualification Report. 47 CFR Section 76.503 Note 2 includes a requirement for limited partners who are not materially involved, directly or indirectly, in the management or operation of the video programming-related activities of the partnership to certify that fact or be attributed to a limited partnership interest. 47 CFR Section 76.503(g) of the Commission’s rules states: ‘‘Prior to acquiring additional multichannel video-programming providers, any cable operator that serves 20% or more of multichannel video-programming subscribers nationwide shall certify to the Commission, concurrent with its applications to the Commission for transfer of licenses at issue in the acquisition, that no violation of the national subscriber limits prescribed in this section will occur as a result of such acquisition.’’ The filings required by these rules will be used by the Commission to determine the nature of the corporate, financial, partnership, ownership and other business relationships that confer on their holders a degree of ownership or other economic interest, or influence or control over an entity engaged in the provision of communications services such that the holders are subject to the Commission’s regulations.
