PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS.

Introduction

Enstar Income Program IV-3, L.P., a Georgia limited partnership (the “Partnership”), was engaged in the ownership and operation of cable television systems in and around the cities of Fulton, Kentucky and South Fulton, Tennessee.

In 1988, the Partnership entered into a general partnership agreement with two affiliated partnerships, Enstar Income Program IV-1, L.P. (Enstar IV-1) and Enstar Income Program IV-2, L.P. (Enstar IV-2), (which are also cable television limited partnerships sponsored by the general partners) to form Enstar Cable of Macoupin County (the “Joint Venture”). The Joint Venture was formed in order to enable each of its partners to participate in the acquisition and ownership of a more diverse pool of systems by combining certain of their financial resources. The Joint Venture began its cable television business operations in January 1988 with the acquisition of a cable television system providing service in and around the municipalities of Carlinville, Virden, Girard, Thayer and Auburn, Illinois.

The General Partners of the Partnership are Enstar Communications Corporation, a Georgia corporation (the “Corporate General Partner”) and Robert T. Graff, Jr. (the “Individual General Partner”). Since its incorporation in 1982, the Corporate General Partner has been engaged in the cable/telecommunications business, both as a General Partner of 14 Limited Partnerships formed to own and operate cable television systems and through a wholly-owned operating subsidiary. On November 12, 1999, the Corporate General Partner became an indirect controlled subsidiary of Charter Communications, Inc., also called Charter, a large cable operator, serving approximately 6.54 million customers. The Corporate General Partner is responsible for day-to-day management of the Partnership and its operations. Charter and its affiliates provide management and other services to the Partnership, for which they receive a management fee and reimbursement of expenses.

The principal executive offices of the Partnership and the Corporate General Partner are located at Charter Plaza, 12405 Powerscourt Drive, St. Louis, MO 63131-0555 and their telephone number is (314) 965-0555. Charter has a website accessible at http://www.charter.com.

The Partnerships’ public filings are available from the Securities and Exchange Commission at 1-800-SEC-0330 or at Reference Room at 450 Fifth Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20549 or at www.sec.gov.

Liquidation Basis Accounting and Sale of Cable Systems

On April 10, 2002, pursuant to an asset purchase agreement dated August 29, 2001, the Partnership completed the sale of all of the Partnership’s Illinois cable television systems in and around Fairfield and Shelbyville, Illinois for a total sale price of approximately $7.3 million and, together with its affiliates, Enstar IV-1 and Enstar IV-2, the sale of the Joint Venture for a total sale price of approximately $9.1 million, the Partnership’s one-third share of which is approximately $3.0 million, to Charter Communications Entertainment I, LLC (“CCE-I”), an affiliate of the Corporate General Partner and an indirect subsidiary of Charter (the “Charter Sale”). The Charter Sale was part of a larger transaction in which the Partnership and five other affiliated partnerships (which, together with the Partnership are collectively referred to as the “Charter Selling Partnerships”) sold all of their assets used in the operation of their respective Illinois cable television systems to CCE-I and two of its affiliates (also referred to as the “Purchasers”) for a total cash sale price of $63.0 million. Each Charter Selling Partnership received the same value per customer. In addition, the Limited Partners of each of the Charter Selling Partnerships approved an amendment to their respective partnership agreement to allow the sale of assets to an affiliate of such partnership’s General Partner. The Purchasers are each indirect subsidiaries of the Corporate General Partner’s ultimate parent company, Charter, and therefore, are affiliates of the Partnership and each of the other Charter Selling Partnerships.

As a result of the Charter Sale, the Joint Venture changed its basis of accounting to the liquidation basis on April 10, 2002. Accordingly, the assets in the accompanying statement of net assets in liquidation as of December 31, 2002 have been stated at estimated realizable values and the liabilities have been reflected at estimated settlement amounts. There were no significant adjustments recorded upon changing to liquidation basis accounting. Net assets in liquidation as of December 31, 2002 represent the estimated distribution to the joint venturers. In January 2003, all remaining assets of the Joint Venture were distributed including a final distribution of $126,000 made to the joint venturers, of which the Partnership’s portion is $42,000.

After setting aside $1,400,000 to fund the Fulton, Kentucky headend’s working capital needs and paying or providing for the payment of the expenses of the Charter Sale, the Corporate General Partner made distributions from the Joint Venture to the Partnership of their allocable share of the remaining net sale proceeds, in accordance with its partnership agreement. The Partnership made an initial distribution on or about May 15, 2002, with a second distribution made on or about September 24, 2002 from the Charter Sale. Distributions from the Joint Venture were $9,537,300 during the year ended December 31, 2002, of which the Partnership’s portion is $3,179,100.

On November 8, 2002, the Partnership entered into an asset purchase agreement providing for the sale of its remaining cable system to Telecommunications Management, LLC (Telecommunications Management) for a total sale price of approximately $1,344,000 (approximately $825 per customer acquired). This sale was a part of a larger transaction in which the Partnership and eight other affiliated partnerships (which, together with the Partnership are collectively referred to as the “Telecommunications Management Selling Partnerships”) sold all of their remaining assets used in the operation of their respective cable systems to Telecommunications Management for a total cash sale price of approximately $15,341,600 (before adjustments) (the Telecommunications Management Sale). The Telecommunications Management Sale was subject to the approval of a majority of the holders of the Partnership’s units and approval of the holders of the other Telecommunications Management Selling Partnerships. In addition, the transaction was subject to certain closing conditions, including regulatory and franchise approvals. In March 2003, a majority of the Limited Partners approved the Telecommunications Management Sale and a plan of liquidation.

On February 6, 2003, the Partnership entered into a side letter amending the asset purchase agreement providing for the sale of all of its cable systems to Telecommunications Management. The February 6, 2003 side letter amended the asset purchase agreement and deposit escrow agreement to extend the date of the second installment of the deposit and the outside closing date each by 60 days. On April 7, 2003, the second installment of the escrow deposit was due and was not made.

On April 24, 2003, the Partnership entered into another side letter amending the asset purchase agreement providing for the sale of all of its cable systems to Telecommunications Management. The April 24, 2003 side letter amended the asset purchase agreement and deposit escrow agreement to extend the date of the second installment of the deposit to May 15, 2003 and the outside closing date to September 30, 2003.

On June 6, 2003, the Partnership entered into a third side letter amending the asset purchase agreement providing for the sale of all of its cable systems to Telecommunications Management. The June 6, 2003 side letter amended the asset purchase agreement to reduce the purchase price of the remaining cable systems in the Selling Partnerships to approximately $14,487,200, subject to closing sale price adjustments, of which approximately $1,303,200 related to the remaining cable system in the Partnership. In addition, $250,000 was deposited in the Deposit Escrow Account concurrent with the execution of the side letter.

Effective August 31, 2003, the Partnership completed the Telecommunications Management Sale of its only remaining cable system for a total adjusted sales price of approximately $1,170,900 (approximately $800 per customer acquired), subject to post closing adjustments.

The Charter Sale resulted from a sale process actively pursued since 1999, when the Corporate General Partner sought purchasers for all of the cable television systems of the Selling Partnerships, as well as eight other affiliated limited partnership cable operators of which the Corporate General Partner is also the general partner. This effort was undertaken primarily because, based on the Corporate General Partner’s experience in the cable television industry, it was concluded that generally applicable market conditions and competitive factors were making (and would increasingly make) it extremely difficult for smaller operators of rural cable systems (such as the Partnership and the other affiliated partnerships) to effectively compete and be financially successful. This determination was based on the anticipated cost of electronics and additional equipment to enable the Partnership’s and the Joint Venture’s systems to operate on a two-way basis with improved technical capacity, insufficiency of the Partnership’s and Joint Venture’s cash reserves and cash flows from operations to finance such expenditures, limited customer growth potential due to the Partnership’s and Joint Venture’s systems’ rural location, and a general inability of a small cable system operator such as the Partnership to benefit from economies of scale and the ability to combine and integrate systems that large cable operators have. Although limited plant upgrades were made, the Corporate General Partner projected that if the Partnership and Joint Venture made the comprehensive additional upgrades deemed necessary to enable enhanced and competitive services, particularly two-way capability, the Partnership and Joint Venture would not recoup the costs

or regain its ability to operate profitably within the remaining term of its franchises, and as a result, making these upgrades would not have been economically prudent.

The Partnership finalized its proposed plan of liquidation in December 2002 in connection with the filing of the proxy to obtain the approval of the Limited Partners for the Telecommunications Management Sale and the subsequent liquidation and dissolution of the Partnership. In March 2003, the required number of votes necessary to implement the plan of liquidation were obtained. As a result, the Partnership changed its basis of accounting to the liquidation basis as of December 31, 2002. Accordingly, the assets in the accompanying statements of net assets in liquidation as of December 31, 2003 have been stated at estimated realizable values and the liabilities have been stated at estimated settlement amounts. The statements of operations, partnership capital and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001 have been presented on a going concern basis comparable to prior periods and do not reflect the effects of the change to the liquidation basis of accounting. Upon changing to liquidation basis accounting, the Partnership recorded $23,700 of accrued costs of liquidation in accounts payable and accrued liabilities representing an estimate of the costs to be incurred after the sale of the final cable system but prior to dissolution of the Partnership. Because reliable estimates of future operating results or the ultimate realizable value of property, plant and equipment could not be developed due to uncertainties surrounding the final dissolution of the Partnership, no adjustments were recorded, prior to the sale of the assets, to reflect assets at estimated realizable values or to reflect estimates of future operating results. Accordingly, the assets in the Partnership’s accompanying statement of net assets in liquidation as of December 31, 2002 have been stated at historical book values. Net assets in liquidation as of December 31, 2003 represent the estimated distributions to the Limited Partners and the General Partners. Distributions ultimately made to the partners upon liquidation will differ from the net assets in liquidation recorded in the accompanying statement of net assets in liquidation as of December 31, 2003 as a result of post closing adjustments to the sale proceeds received by the Partnership and adjustments to accrued costs of liquidation. The Partnership’s accrued costs of liquidation were increased by $7,400 during the year ended December 31, 2003. No assurance can be given as to the amount of final distributions to be made to the partners.

The Corporate General Partner’s intention is to terminate the Partnership as expeditiously as possible in accordance with the Partnership Agreement. The Partnership made an initial distribution payment of $1.9 million to the Limited Partners in November 2003. A second and final liquidating distribution will occur on or after October 2004 upon the release of the indemnity escrow and the receipt of the remaining proceeds of such escrow if any.

In order to reduce costs during the liquidation period, we submitted a request for a no action letter on October 30, 2003 (the “Letter”) from the Division of Corporation Finance (the “Division”) of the Securities and Exchange Commission seeking to relieve us from filing annual and quarterly reports on Forms 10-K and 10-Q under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). The Letter requested that the Division not recommend enforcement action to the Commission against us for not filing these reports, subject to complying with the requirements of the Letter. Our request currently is pending with the Division and no relief has been granted. As such, we will continue to file annual and quarterly reports on Forms 10-K and 10-Q under the Exchange Act pending receipt of a favorable no action letter or until final dissolution of the Partnership. However, in connection with the relief requested by the Letter, we have undertaken not to consent to the admission of any transferee of units as a limited partner in the Partnership, subject to the terms of our partnership agreement, except for transfers for estate planning, gift and intra-family transfer purposes. Following approval of the no action letter, we will continue to provide financial statements to the Limited Partners in a non-public presentation.

Competition

Prior to the Telecommunications Management Sale, we faced competition in the areas of price, services and service reliability. Our key competitors included Direct Broadcast Satellite, broadcast television, traditional overbuilds, telephone companies and utilities, private cable and wireless distribution. Following the Telecommunications Management Sale, we ceased operations and therefore have no competition.

Employees

The various personnel required to operate our business up through the close of the Telecommunications Management Sale were employed by the Corporate General Partner, its subsidiary corporation, and Charter, the cost of which was charged directly to the Partnership. Following the Telecommunications Management Sale, we ceased operations and terminated the remaining employees of the Partnership.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES.

All of our cable systems and the associated property leased or owned by them were sold effective August 31, 2003.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

As disclosed in Charter’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003, the parent of the Corporate General Partner and the Manager is the defendant in twenty-two class action and shareholder lawsuits and is the subject of a grand jury investigation being conducted by the United States Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Missouri into certain of its accounting and reporting practices, focusing on how Charter reported customer numbers and its reporting of amounts received from digital set-top terminal suppliers for advertising. The United States Attorney’s Office has publicly stated that Charter is not currently a target of the investigation. Charter has also been advised by the United States Attorney’s Office that no member of its board of directors, including its Chief Executive Officer, is a target of the investigation. On July 24, 2003, a federal grand jury charged four former officers of Charter with conspiracy and mail and wire fraud, alleging improper accounting and reporting practices focusing on revenue from digital set-top terminal suppliers and inflated subscriber account numbers. On July 25, 2003, one of the former officers who was indicted entered a guilty plea. Charter has informed the Corporate General Partner that they are fully cooperating with the investigation.

Charter is unable to predict the outcome of the class action lawsuits and government investigations at this time. An unfavorable outcome of these matters could have a material adverse effect on Charter’s results of operations and financial condition which could in turn have a material adverse effect on the Partnership.

ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS.

No matters were submitted to a vote of security holders during the fourth quarter of the year ended December 31, 2003.

PART II

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR THE REGISTRANT’S EQUITY SECURITIES AND RELATED SECURITY HOLDER MATTERS.

Restrictions on Admission as Limited Partner

Our only remaining activities include settling our affairs in the normal course of liquidation and our only remaining assets consist of temporary investments in short-term securities and the right to receive certain escrowed amounts. In addition, there has historically been only limited trading in our limited partnership units and the units have never been listed or traded on a public securities exchange or on any similar trading facility. Therefore, in order to reduce costs during the liquidation period, we submitted a request for a no action letter on October 30, 2003 (the “Letter”) from the Division of Corporation Finance (the “Division”) of the Securities and Exchange Commission seeking to relieve us from filing annual and quarterly reports on Forms 10-K and 10-Q under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). The Letter requested that the Division not recommend enforcement action to the Commission against us for not filing these reports, subject to complying with the requirements of the Letter. Our request currently is pending with the Division and no relief has been granted. As such, we will continue to file annual and quarterly reports on Forms 10-K and 10-Q under the Exchange Act pending receipt of a favorable no action letter or until final dissolution of the Partnership. However, in connection with the relief requested by the Letter, we have undertaken not to consent to the admission of any transferee of units as a limited partner in the Partnership, subject to the terms of our partnership agreement, except for transfers for estate planning, gift and intra-family transfer purposes. Following approval of the no action letter, we will continue to provide financial statements to the Limited Partners in a non-public presentation.

The approximate number of equity security holders of record was 844 as of December 31, 2003.

Distributions

The amended Partnership Agreement generally provides that all cash distributions, as defined, be distributed 1% to the General Partners and 99% to the Limited Partners until the Limited Partners have received aggregate cash distributions equal to their original capital contributions (“Capital Payback”). The Partnership Agreement also provides that all partnership operating profits, gains, operational losses, and credits, all as defined, be allocated 1% to the General Partners and 99% to the Limited Partners until the Limited Partners have been allocated net profits equal to the amount of cash flow required for Capital Payback. After the Limited Partners have received cash flow equal to their initial investments, the General Partners will receive a 1% allocation of cash flow from sale or liquidation of a system until the Limited Partners have received an annual simple interest return of at least 12% of their initial investments less any distributions from previous system sales and cash distributions from operations after Capital Payback. Thereafter, the respective allocations will be made 20% to the General Partners and 80% to the Limited Partners. Any losses from system sales or exchanges shall be allocated first to all partners having positive capital account balances (based on their respective capital accounts) until all such accounts are reduced to zero and thereafter to the Corporate General Partner. All allocations to individual Limited Partners will be based on their respective limited partnership ownership interests.

Upon the disposition of substantially all of the Partnership’s assets, gains shall be allocated first to the Limited Partners having negative capital account balances until their capital accounts are increased to zero, next equally among the General Partners until their capital accounts are increased to zero, and thereafter as outlined in the preceding paragraph. Upon dissolution of the Partnership, distributions will be made in amounts equal to the respective partners remaining capital account balances. Any negative capital account balances remaining after all allocations and distributions are made must be funded by the respective partners. The Partnership Agreement limits the amount of debt the Partnership may incur.

We began making periodic cash distributions to Limited Partners from operations during 1987 and distributed $498,800 ($12.50 per unit) in 2001. Distributions to Limited Partners totaled $1,875,300 ($47.00 per unit) and $10,976,800 ($275.11 per unit) for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The distributions in 2001 were primarily funded from cash flow generated by Partnership operations, which consisted of cash flow generated by the Partnership’s cable systems and cash flow distributions received by the Partnership from the Joint Venture. The 2002 distribution was funded primarily by proceeds from the sale of the Partnership’s cable systems and distributions from the Joint Venture from the sale of its cable systems. See Item 7 “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Liquidity and Capital Resources.”

The Corporate General Partner’s intention is to terminate the Partnership as expeditiously as possible in accordance with its partnership agreement. A second and final liquidating distribution will occur on or after October 2004 upon the release of the indemnity escrow and the receipt of the remaining proceeds of such escrow if any.

Comparability of the above information from year to year is affected by the disposition of the Macoupin Joint Venture’s cable systems in and around Macoupin, Illinois in April 2002. See Note 2 to the Macoupin Joint Venture’s financial statements included with this annual report.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

Introduction

This report includes certain forward-looking statements regarding, among other things, our future costs of liquidation, legal requirements and our estimated future distributions. Such forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties including, without limitation, the uncertainty of legislative and regulatory changes and the costs required to liquidate the Partnership, as discussed more fully elsewhere in this Report.

We conducted our cable television business operations both (i) through the direct ownership and operation of certain cable television systems and (ii) through our participation as a partner with a one-third (1/3) interest in Enstar Cable of Macoupin County. The Joint Venture was owned equally by us and two affiliated partnerships (Enstar Income Program IV-1, L.P. and Enstar Income Program IV-2, L.P.). We participated equally with our co-partners under the Joint Venture’s partnership agreement with respect to capital contributions, obligations and commitments, and results of operations. Accordingly, in considering our financial condition and results of operations, consideration must also be made of those matters as they relate to the Joint Venture. The following discussion reflects such consideration, and with respect to results of operations, a separate discussion is provided for each entity.

Critical Accounting Estimates

As discussed above, the financial statements are presented on the liquidation basis of accounting as of December 31, 2003 and 2002 and for the year ended December 31, 2003. These financial statements include estimates regarding the estimated costs to liquidate the partnership and the ultimate resolution of various items accrued for in the financial statements as well as post closing adjustments to sale proceeds received by the Partnership. No assurance can be given as to the amount of final distributions to be made to the partners.

Results of Operations

The Partnership

The Partnership operated its properties through August 31, 2003 but had no operations for the period subsequent to that date as a result of the Telecommunications Management Sale discussed above. In addition, the Partnership changed to the liquidation basis of accounting on December 31, 2002. Accordingly, no discussion of operating results for the year

ended December 31, 2003 compared to the year ended December 31, 2002 has been provided as the periods are not comparable nor are they presented on a comparable basis of accounting.

Net assets in liquidation at December 31, 2003 were $519,000, consisting of current assets of $591,600, offset by current liabilities of $72,600. The net change in net assets in liquidation for the year ended December 31, 2003 was a decrease of $1,072,600, which was primarily due to $1.9 million of distributions made to the Limited Partners.

Year Ended December 31, 2002 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2001

Revenues decreased $1,164,900 from $2,374,100 to $1,209,200, or 49.1%, for the year ended December 31, 2002 as compared to 2001. The decrease was due to a decline in the number of basic and premium service customers coupled with the sale of the Partnership’s Illinois cable systems in April 2002. As of December 31, 2002 and 2001, we had approximately 1,600 and 4,900 basic service customers, respectively, and 300 and 1,100 premium service customers, respectively.

Service costs decreased $353,500 from $825,900 to $472,400, or 42.8%, for the year ended December 31, 2002 as compared to 2001. Service costs represent costs directly attributable to providing cable services to customers. The decrease was primarily due to the sale of the Partnership’s Illinois cable systems in April 2002.

General and administrative expenses decreased $170,400 from $395,100 to $224,700, or 43.1%, for the year ended December 31, 2002 as compared to 2001, primarily due to the sale of the Partnership’s Illinois cable systems in April 2002.

General partner management fees and reimbursed expenses decreased $151,800 from $356,300 to $204,500, or 42.6%, for the year ended December 31, 2002 as compared to 2001. These costs represent administrative costs reimbursed to Charter by the Partnership based on Charter’s actual costs incurred. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in management fees due to a decrease in revenues as a result of the sale of the Partnership’s Illinois cable systems in April 2002.

Depreciation and amortization expense decreased $165,400 from $325,700 to $160,300, or 50.8%, for the year ended December 31, 2002 as compared to 2001, due to the sale of the Partnership’s Illinois cable systems in April 2002 and the impact of certain tangible assets becoming fully depreciated and certain intangible assets becoming fully amortized.

Due to the factors described above, operating income decreased $323,800 from $471,100 to $147,300, or by 68.7%, for the year ended December 31, 2002 as compared to 2001.

Interest income, net of interest expense, increased $2,900 from $49,200 to $52,100, or 5.9%, for the year ended December 31, 2002 as compared to 2001. The increase was primarily due to higher average cash balances available for investment in 2002 as a result of our capital expenditures and lower interest rates.

We recognized a $5,875,800 gain in 2002 on the sale of the Partnership’s Illinois cable systems in the first half of the year.

Other expense of $32,300 for the years ended December 31, 2001 represents legal and proxy costs associated with the proposed sales of our assets.

Due to the factors described above, net income increased $7,753,900 from $682,500 to $8,436,400 for the year ended December 31, 2002 as compared to 2001.

The Joint Venture

On April 10, 2002, the Macoupin Joint Venture completed the sale of its cable systems and accordingly had no operations for the year ended December 31, 2003.

Final dissolution of the Joint Venture occurred in January 2003 with the final cash distribution to the joint venturers of $126,000.

Year Ended December 31, 2002 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2001

The Macoupin Joint Venture had no results of operations for the period subsequent to April 10, 2002 as a result of the sale of its cable systems as discussed in Note 2 to the accompanying financial statements of the Macoupin Joint Venture. The Macoupin Joint Venture had net income of $7,010,100 of which $6,918,500 was the gain on sale of cable systems. Accordingly, no discussion of operating results for the period from January 1, 2002 to April 10, 2002 and the year ended December 31, 2001, has been provided as such analysis is not meaningful.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Partnership

Cash and cash equivalents decreased $2,051,100 from $2,597,700 at December 31, 2002 to $546,600 at December 31, 2003. The decrease was primarily due to repayments of $1,343,000 on the amounts due to affiliates, remittance of $127,000 in withholding taxes related to the April 2002 sale of the Partnership’s Illinois cable systems which had been recorded in accounts payable and accrued expenses and distributions of $1,875,300. The decreases were offset by $1,170,900 of proceeds from the Telecommunications Management Sale. Amounts due to affiliates at December 31, 2002 primarily represent accrued and unpaid management fees and other allocated expenses accrued since the fourth quarter of 2000. Cash and cash equivalents decreased $100,800 from $2,698,500 at December 31, 2001 to $2,597,700 at December 31, 2002 as a result of $601,700 of cash provided by operating activities, $7,330,300 proceeds from sale of cable system and $3,179,100 distributions from Joint Venture offset by capital expenditures of $124,200 and $11,087,700 distributions to partners.

The Corporate General Partner’s intention is to terminate the Partnership as expeditiously as possible in accordance with the Partnership Agreement. The Partnership made an initial distribution of $1.9 million to the Limited Partners in November 2003. A second and final liquidating distribution will occur on or after October 2004 upon the release of the indemnity escrow and the receipt of the remaining proceeds of such escrow if any.

The Macoupin Joint Venture

The Macoupin Joint Venture distributed $126,000, $9,537,300 and $1,800,000 equally among its three partners in 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

Certain Trends and Uncertainties

Charter and our Corporate General Partner have had communications and correspondence with representatives of certain limited partners, and others, concerning certain Enstar partnerships of which our Corporate General Partner is also the Corporate General Partner. While we are not aware of any formal litigation which has been filed relating to the communications and correspondence, or the subject matter referred to therein, it is impossible to predict what actions may be taken in the future or what loss contingencies may result therefrom.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

We are not exposed to material market risks associated with financial instruments.

ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA.

The index to the financial statements and related financial information required to be filed hereunder is located on Page F-1.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE.

Previously reported in our Current Report on Form 8-K, dated June 14, 2002.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

As of the end of the period covered by this report, our Corporate General Partner, including our Chief Administrative Officer and Principal Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures with respect to the information generated for use in this annual report. The evaluation was based in part upon reports and affidavits provided by a number of executives of the Corporate General Partner. Based upon, and as of the date of that evaluation, our Chief Administrative Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurances that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms.

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during 2003 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance of achieving the desired control objectives and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based upon the above evaluation, we believe that our controls do provide such reasonable assurances.

ITEM 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION.

Management Fee

The Partnership and Joint Venture have management agreements (the “Management Agreement”) with Enstar Cable Corporation (“Enstar Cable”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Corporate General Partner, pursuant to which Enstar Cable manages the Partnership’s and Joint Venture’s systems and provides all operational support for the activities of the Partnership and the Joint Venture. For these services, Enstar Cable receives a management fee of 5% of the Partnership’s gross revenues and 4% of the Joint Venture’s gross revenues, excluding revenues from the sale of cable television systems or franchises, which is calculated and paid monthly. The Joint Venture also is required to distribute 1% of its gross revenues to the Corporate General Partner for its interest as the Corporate General Partner of the Partnership. In addition, the Partnership and Joint Venture reimburse Enstar Cable for certain operating expenses incurred by Enstar Cable in the daily operation of their cable systems. The Management Agreement also requires the Partnership and Joint Venture to indemnify Enstar Cable (including its officers, employees, agents and shareholders) against loss or expense, absent negligence or deliberate breach by Enstar Cable of the Management Agreements. The Management Agreements are terminable by the Partnership upon 60 days written notice to Enstar Cable. Enstar Cable had, prior to November 12, 1999, engaged Falcon Communications, L.P. (“Falcon”) to provide management services for the Partnership and Joint Venture and paid Falcon a portion of the management fees it received in consideration of such services and reimbursed Falcon for expenses incurred by Falcon on its behalf. Subsequent to November 12, 1999, as successor-by-merger to Falcon, Charter has provided such services and received such payments. Additionally, the Joint Venture received system operating management services from affiliates of Enstar Cable in lieu of directly employing personnel to perform those services. The Joint Venture reimburses the affiliates for its allocable share of their operating costs. The Corporate General Partner also performs supervisory and administrative services for the Partnership, for which it is reimbursed.

For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003, Enstar Cable charged the Partnership management fees of approximately $25,100. The Partnership also reimbursed Enstar Cable, Charter and its affiliates approximately $51,800 for system operating management services and direct expenses. In addition, programming services are purchased through Charter. The Partnership was charged approximately $117,900 for these programming services for fiscal year 2003.

Charter as manager of the Corporate General Partner has adopted a code of conduct which covers all employees, including all executive officers, and includes conflict of interest provisions and standards for honest and ethical conduct, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 14.1 to this annual report.

(“Falcon”) and assumed the management services operations previously provided by affiliates of Falcon. Charter now manages the operations of the partnerships of which ECC is the Corporate General Partner, including the Partnership. Commencing November 13, 1999, Charter began receiving management fees and reimbursed expenses which had previously been paid by the Corporate General Partner to Falcon.

Pursuant to the Management Agreement between the Partnership and Enstar Cable Corporation, a subsidiary of the Corporate General Partner, Enstar Cable Corporation provides financial, management, supervisory and marketing services, as necessary to the Partnership’s operations. This Management Agreement provides that the Partnership shall pay management fees equal to 5% of the Partnership’s gross receipts from customers. In addition, Enstar Cable Corporation is to be reimbursed for amounts paid to third parties, the cost of administrative services in an amount equal to the lower of actual cost or the amount the Partnership would be required to pay to independent parties for comparable administrative services, salaries and benefits of employees necessary for day-to-day operation of the Partnership’s systems, and an allocable shares of costs associated with facilities required to manage the Partnership’s systems. To provide these management services, Enstar Cable Corporation has engaged Charter Communications Holding Company, LLC, an affiliate of the Corporate General Partner and Charter, to provide management, consulting, programming and billing services for the Partnership.

Since November 12, 1999, when Charter acquired control of the Corporate General Partner and its subsidiary, Enstar Cable Corporation, as well as Falcon Communications, L.P., the management fees payable have been limited to reimbursement of an allocable share of Charter’s management costs, which is less than the fee permitted by the existing agreement. In addition, the Partnership was charged directly for the salaries and benefits of employees for daily operations, and where shared by other Charter systems, an allocable share of facilities costs, with programming and billing being charged to the Partnership at Charter’s actual cost. For the year ended December 31, 2003, service costs directly attributable to providing cable services to customers which were incurred by Charter and reimbursed by the Partnership and Joint Venture were $51,800. In addition, programming services were purchased through Charter. Charter charged us approximately $117,900 for these programming services for fiscal year 2003. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003, Enstar Cable charged the Partnership management fees of approximately $25,100.

Conflicts of Interest

The Partnership relies upon the Corporate General Partner and certain of its affiliates to provide general management services, system operating services, supervisory and administrative services and programming. See Item 11. “Executive Compensation” and Item 7. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” The executive officers of the Corporate General Partner have their personal employment with Charter, and, as a result, are involved in the management of other cable ventures. Charter may continue to enter into other cable ventures. These affiliations subject Charter and the Corporate General Partner and their management to conflicts of interest. These conflicts of interest relate to the time and services that management will devote to the Partnership’s affairs.

Fiduciary Responsibility and Indemnification of the General Partners

The Partnership Agreement provides that the Corporate General Partner will be indemnified by the Partnership for acts performed within the scope of its authority under the Partnership Agreement if the Corporate General Partner (i) acted in good faith and in a manner that it reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Partnership and the partners, and (ii) had no reasonable grounds to believe that its conduct was negligent. In addition, the Partnership Agreement provides that the Corporate General Partner will not be liable to the Partnership or its Limited Partners for errors in judgment or other acts or omissions not amounting to negligence or misconduct. Therefore, Limited Partners will have a more limited right of action than they would have absent such provisions. In

addition, we maintain, at our expense and in such reasonable amounts as the Corporate General Partner determines, a liability insurance policy which insures the Corporate General Partner, Charter and its affiliates, officers and directors and other persons determined by the Corporate General Partner against liabilities which they may incur with respect to claims made against them for wrongful or allegedly wrongful acts, including errors, misstatements, misleading statements, omissions, neglect or breaches of duty.

PART IV

ITEM 14. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING FEES AND SERVICES.

Audit Fees

During the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, we paid KPMG LLP (“KPMG”) aggregate fees and related expenses for the audit of our financial statements for the year and for the reviews of our interim financial statements of approximately $21,100 and $47,000, respectively.

The Sole Director of our Corporate General Partner functions as our Audit Committee. As such, the Sole Director appoints, retains, compensates and oversees the registered public accountants and approves in advance all fees and terms for the audit engagement and non-audit engagements where non-audit services are not prohibited by Section 10A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended with registered public accountants. The Sole Director approved 100% of the KPMG fees for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002. Each year, including 2003, with respect to the proposed audit engagement, the Sole Director reviews the proposed risk assessment process in establishing the scope of examination and the reports to be rendered.

The Sole Director oversees the work of the registered public accounting firm (including resolution of disagreements between management and the public accounting firm regarding financial reporting) for the purpose of preparing or issuing an audit report or performing other audit, review or attest services. The registered public accounting firm reports directly to the Sole Director in its Audit Committee function. In performing this function, the Sole Director undertakes those tasks and responsibilities that, in its judgment, most effectively contribute to and implement the purposes of an audit committee.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

To the Partners of
Enstar Income Program IV-3, L.P.:

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets in liquidation of Enstar Income Program IV-3, L.P. (a Georgia limited partnership) as of December 31, 2003 and 2002 and the related statement of changes in net assets in liquidation for the year ended December 31, 2003 (see Note 2). We have also audited the statements of operations, partnership capital (deficit) and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2002. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Partnership’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. The 2001 financial statements were audited by other auditors who have ceased operations. Those auditors expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements in their report dated March 29, 2002.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

As described in Note 2 to the financial statements, the partners of Enstar Income Program IV-3, L.P. have approved a plan of liquidation. Accordingly, the Partnership has changed its basis of accounting from the going concern basis to a liquidation basis as of December 31, 2002.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets in liquidation of Enstar Income Program IV-3, L.P. as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, the changes in its net assets in liquidation for the year ended December 31, 2003, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2002 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applied on the bases described in the preceding paragraph.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2003, 2002 AND 2001

ORGANIZATION

Enstar Income Program IV-3, L.P., a Georgia limited partnership (the “Partnership”), was formed on November 4, 1985, by a partnership agreement, as amended (the “Partnership Agreement”), to acquire, construct, improve, develop and operate cable television systems in various locations in the United States. The Partnership Agreement provided for Enstar Communications Corporation (the “Corporate General Partner”) and Robert T. Graff, Jr. to be the General Partners and for the admission of Limited Partners through the sale of interests in the Partnership.

On November 12, 1999, Charter Communications Holding Company, LLC, an entity controlled by Charter Communications, Inc. (“Charter”), acquired both the Corporate General Partner, as well as Falcon Communications, L.P. (“Falcon”), the entity that provided management and certain other services to the Partnership. Charter is a large cable operator, serving approximately 6.54 million customers and files periodic reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Charter and its affiliates (principally CC VII Holdings, LLC, the successor-by-merger to Falcon) provide management and other services to the Partnership. Charter receives a management fee and reimbursement of expenses from the Corporate General Partner for managing the Partnership’s cable television operations. The Corporate General Partner, Charter and affiliated companies are responsible for the management of the Partnership and its operations.

The financial statements do not give effect to any assets that the partners may have outside of their interest in the Partnership, nor to any obligations of the partners, including income taxes.

LIQUIDATION BASIS ACCOUNTING AND SALES OF CABLE SYSTEMS

On April 10, 2002, pursuant to an asset purchase agreement dated August 29, 2001, the Partnership completed the sale of all of the Partnership’s Illinois cable television systems in and around Fairfield and Shelbyville, Illinois to Charter Communications Entertainment I, LLC (“CCE-1”), an affiliate of the Corporate General Partner and an indirect subsidiary of Charter Communications, Inc. (“Charter”) for a total sale price of approximately $7.3 million and, together with its affiliates, Enstar Income Program IV-1, L.P. (Enstar IV-1) and Enstar Income Program IV-2, L.P. (Enstar IV-2), the sale of the Enstar Cable of Macoupin County’s (the “Joint Venture”) Systems for a total sale price of approximately $9.1 million, the Partnership’s one-third share of which is approximately $3.0 million (the “Charter Sale”). The Charter Sale is part of a larger transaction in which the Partnership and five other affiliated partnerships (which, together with the Partnership are collectively referred to as the “Charter Selling Partnerships”) sold all of their assets used in the operation of their respective Illinois cable television systems to CCE-I and two of its affiliates (also referred to, with CCE-I, as the “Purchasers”) for a total cash sale price of $63.0 million. Each Charter Selling Partnership received the same value per customer. In addition, the Limited Partners of each of the Charter Selling Partnerships approved an amendment to their respective partnership agreement to allow the sale of assets to an affiliate of such partnership’s General Partner. The Purchasers are each indirect subsidiaries of the Corporate General Partner’s ultimate parent company, Charter, and therefore, are affiliates of the Partnership and each of the other Charter Selling Partnerships.

ENSTAR INCOME PROGRAM IV-3, L.P.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2003, 2002 AND 2001

On February 6, 2003, the Partnership entered into a side letter amending the asset purchase agreement providing for the sale of its remaining cable systems to Telecommunications Management. The February 6, 2003 side letter amended the asset purchase agreement and deposit escrow agreement to extend the date of the second installment of the deposit and the outside closing date each by 60 days. On April 7, 2003, the second installment of the escrow deposit was due and was not made.

Effective August 31, 2003, the Partnership completed the Telecommunications Management Sale for a total adjusted sales price of approximately $1,170,900 (approximately $800 per customer acquired), subject to post closing adjustments.

The Charter Sale resulted from a sale process actively pursued since 1999, when the Corporate General Partner sought purchasers for all of the cable television systems of the Selling Partnerships, as well as eight other affiliated limited partnership cable operators of which the Corporate General Partner is also the general partner. This effort was undertaken primarily because, based on the Corporate General Partner’s experience in the cable television industry, it was concluded that generally applicable market conditions and competitive factors were making (and would increasingly make) it extremely difficult for smaller operators of rural cable systems (such as the Partnership and the other affiliated partnerships) to effectively compete and be financially successful. This determination was based on the anticipated cost of electronics and additional equipment to enable the Partnership’s and the Joint Venture’s systems to operate on a two-way basis with improved technical capacity, insufficiency of the Partnership’s and Joint Venture’s cash reserves and cash flows from operations to finance such expenditures, limited customer growth potential due to the Partnership’s and Joint Venture’s systems’ rural location, and a general inability of a small cable system operator such as the Partnership to benefit from economies of scale and the ability to combine and integrate systems that large cable operators have. Although limited plant upgrades were made, the Corporate General Partner projected that if the Partnership and Joint Venture made the comprehensive additional upgrades deemed necessary to enable enhanced and competitive services, particularly activation of two-way capability, the Partnership and Joint Venture would not recoup the costs or regain its ability to operate profitably within the remaining term of its franchises, and as a result, making these upgrades would not have been economically prudent.

F-10

ENSTAR INCOME PROGRAM IV-3, L.P.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2003, 2002 AND 2001

The Partnership finalized its proposed plan of liquidation in December 2002 in connection with the filing of the proxy to obtain the approval of the Limited Partners for the Telecommunications Management Sale and the subsequent liquidation and dissolution of the Partnership. In March 2003, the required number of votes necessary to implement the plan of liquidation were obtained. As a result, the Partnership changed its basis of accounting to the liquidation basis as of December 31, 2002. Accordingly, the assets in the accompanying statements of net assets in liquidation as of December 31, 2003 have been stated at estimated realizable values and the liabilities have been stated at estimated settlement amounts. The statements of operations, partnership capital and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001 have been presented on a going concern basis comparable to prior periods and do not reflect the effects of the change to the liquidation basis of accounting. Upon changing to liquidation basis of accounting, the Partnership recorded $23,700 of accrued costs of liquidation in accounts payable and accrued liabilities representing an estimate of the costs to be incurred after the sale of the final cable system but prior to dissolution of the Partnership. Because reliable estimates of future operating results or the ultimate realizable value of property, plant and equipment could not be developed due to uncertainties surrounding the final dissolution of the Partnership, no adjustments were recorded, prior to the sale of the assets, to reflect assets at estimated realizable values or to reflect estimates of future operating results. Accordingly, the assets in the accompanying statement of net assets in liquidation as of December 31, 2002 have been stated at historical book values. Net assets in liquidation as of December 31, 2003 represent the estimated distributions to the Limited Partners and the General Partners. Distributions ultimately made to the partners upon liquidation will differ from the net assets in liquidation recorded in the accompanying statement of net assets in liquidation as of December 31, 2003 as a result of post closing adjustments to the sale proceeds received by the Partnership and adjustments to accrued costs of liquidation. The Partnership’s accrued costs of liquidation were increased by $7,400 during the year ended December 31, 2003. No assurance can be given as to the amount of final distributions to be made to the partners

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Liquidation Accounting

As discussed in Note 2, the financial statements as of December 31, 2003 and December 31, 2002 are presented on a liquidation basis of accounting. Accordingly, the financial information in the statement of changes in net assets in liquidation for the year ended December 31, 2003 is presented on a different basis of accounting than the financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, which were prepared on the historical cost basis of accounting. As a result, depreciation and amortization ceased upon conversion to liquidation accounting and capital expenditures are expensed as incurred.

Cash Equivalents

The Partnership considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. These investments are carried at cost which approximates market value.

Investment in Joint Venture

The Partnership’s investment and share of the income or loss in the Joint Venture was accounted for on the equity method of accounting.

Costs incurred in obtaining and renewing cable franchises are deferred and amortized over the lives of the franchises. Franchise rights acquired through the purchase of cable television systems represent management’s estimate of fair value and are generally amortized using the straight-line method over a period of up to 15 years. This period represents management’s best estimate of the useful lives of the franchises and assumes substantially all of those franchises that expire during the period will be renewed by the Partnership. Amortization expense related to franchises for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001 was $1,800 and $38,300, respectively.

Long-Lived Assets

Prior to the sale of its remaining cable systems, the Partnership reviewed its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If the sum of the expected cash flows, undiscounted and without interest is less than the carrying amount of the asset, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its estimated fair value and an impairment loss is recognized.

Revenue Recognition

Cable television revenues from basic and premium services were recognized when the related services were provided. Advertising revenues were recognized when commercials were broadcast. Installation revenues were recognized to the extent of direct selling costs incurred. The remainder, if any, was deferred and amortized to income over the estimated average period that customers are expected to remain connected to the cable system. As of December 31, 2002 and 2001, no installation revenues have been deferred, as direct selling costs have exceeded installation revenue.

Local governmental authorities impose franchise fees on the Partnership ranging up to a federally mandated maximum of 5% of gross revenues. Such fees are collected on a monthly basis from the Partnership’s customers and are periodically remitted to local franchise authorities. Franchise fees collected and paid are reported as revenues and expenses.

Income Taxes

As a partnership, Enstar Income Program IV-3, L.P. pays no federal income taxes. All of the income, gains, losses, deductions and credits of the Partnership are passed through to its partners. The basis in the Partnership’s assets and liabilities differs for financial and tax reporting purposes. As of December 31, 2003 and 2002, the book basis of the Partnership’s net assets exceeds its tax basis by approximately $22,900 and $173,100, respectively. The accompanying financial statements, which are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, differ from the financial statements prepared for tax purposes due to the different treatment of various items as specified in the Internal Revenue Code. The net effect of these accounting differences is that net income for the year ended December 31, 2003 in the financial statements is approximately $121,400 more than tax income primarily as a result of tax loss related to the liquidation of the Joint Venture. The net effect of these accounting differences for the year ended December 31, 2002 is that net income is $870,000 less than tax income primarily as a result of differences between tax gain on sale of cable systems versus book gain on sale of cable systems caused principally by book and tax basis differences on the assets sold. The net effect of these accounting differences is that net income for the year ended December 31, 2001 is

F-12

ENSTAR INCOME PROGRAM IV-3, L.P.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2003, 2002 AND 2001

approximately $78,900 more than tax income for the same period caused principally by timing differences in depreciation and amortization expense reported by the Partnership and the Joint Venture.

Net Income per Unit of Limited Partnership Interest

Net income per unit of limited partnership interest is based on the average number of units outstanding during the periods presented. For this purpose, net income has been allocated 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partners. The General Partners do not own units of partnership interest in the Partnership, but rather hold a participation interest in the income, losses and distributions of the Partnership.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. The estimates include useful lives of property, plant and equipment valuation of long-lived assets and allocated operating costs. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

PARTNERSHIP MATTERS

The amended Partnership Agreement generally provides that all cash distributions, as defined, be distributed 1% to the General Partners and 99% to the Limited Partners until the Limited Partners have received aggregate cash distributions equal to their original capital contributions (“Capital Payback”). The Partnership Agreement also provides that all partnership profits, gains, operational losses, and credits, all as defined, be allocated 1% to the General Partners and 99% to the Limited Partners until the Limited Partners have been allocated net profits equal to the amount of cash flow required for Capital Payback. After the Limited Partners have received cash flow equal to their initial investments, the General Partners will receive a 1% allocation of cash flow from sale or liquidation of a system until the Limited Partners have received an annual simple interest return of at least 12% of their initial investments less any distributions from previous system sales and cash distributions from operations after Capital Payback. Thereafter, the respective allocations will be made 20% to the General Partners and 80% to the Limited Partners. Any losses from system sales or exchanges shall be allocated first to all partners having positive capital account balances (based on their respective capital accounts) until all such accounts are reduced to zero and thereafter to the Corporate General Partner. All allocations to individual Limited Partners will be based on their respective limited partnership ownership interests.

A portion of the Partnership’s distributions to partners was funded from distributions received from the Joint Venture.

EQUITY IN NET ASSETS OF JOINT VENTURE

The Partnership and two affiliated partnerships, Enstar IV-1 and Enstar IV-2, each owned one-third of the Joint Venture until its sale in the second quarter of 2002. Each venturer shared equally in the profits and losses of the Joint Venture. The Joint Venture generated net income of $7,010,100 and $583,500 for the period from January 1, 2002 to April 10, 2002 and for the year ended December 31, 2001, respectively, of which $2,336,700 and $194,500 was allocated to the Partnership, respectively. In addition, the Joint Venturer’s net assets in liquidation increased by $73,500 (before distributions) of which $24,500 was allocated to the Partnership. The operations of the Joint Venture were significant to the Partnership and its financial statements included elsewhere in this annual report should be read in conjunction with these financial statements.

ENSTAR INCOME PROGRAM IV-3, L.P.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2003, 2002 AND 2001

As a result of the Charter sale, the Joint Venture changed its basis of accounting to the liquidation basis on April 10, 2002. Accordingly, the assets in the accompanying statement of net assets in liquidation as of December 31, 2002 are stated at estimated realizable values and the liabilities are reflected at estimated settlement amounts. There were no significant adjustments recorded upon changing to liquidation basis accounting. Net assets in liquidation as of December 31, 2002 represent the estimated distribution to the joint venturers. The Joint Venture distributed $9.5 million for the period from April 11, 2002 to December 31, 2002. In January 2003, all remaining assets of the Joint Venture were distributed including a final distribution of $126,000 made to the Venturers of which the Partnership’s portion was $42,000.

PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

Property, plant and equipment at historical cost consists of the following as of December 31, 2002. All remaining property, plant and equipment was sold in 2003.


Cable distribution systems	$	2,514,800
Land and improvements		2,500
Vehicles, furniture and equipment		134,500

		2,651,800
Less: accumulated depreciation		(2,197,200	)

	$	454,600

Depreciation expense for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001 was $158,500 and $286,300, respectively.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Partnership and Joint Venture are party to lawsuits and claims that arose in the ordinary course of conducting its business. In the opinion of management, after consulting with legal counsel, the outcome of these lawsuits and claims will not have a material adverse effect on the Partnership and Joint Venture’s financial position or results of operations.

EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN

The Partnership participates in a cash or deferred profit sharing plan (the “Profit Sharing Plan”) sponsored by a subsidiary of the Corporate General Partner, which covers substantially all of its employees. The Profit Sharing Plan provides that each participant may elect to make a contribution in an amount up to 15% of the participant’s annual compensation which otherwise would have been payable to the participant as salary. Effective January 1, 1999, the Profit Sharing Plan was amended, whereby the Partnership would make an employer contribution equal to 100% of the first 3% and 50% of the next 2% of the participants’ contributions. The Profit Sharing Plan was merged into the Charter Communication’s Inc. 401(k) Plan on November 1, 2002. Employees that qualified for participation could contribute up to 50% of their salary, on a pre-tax basis, subject to a maximum contribution limit as determined by the Internal Revenue Service. The Partnership matched 50% of the first 5% of participant contributions. Contributions of $0, $800 and $1,100 were made during 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

TRANSACTIONS WITH THE GENERAL PARTNERS AND AFFILIATES

The Partnership has a management and service agreement (the “Management Agreement”) with Enstar Cable Corporation (“Enstar Cable”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Corporate General Partner, for a monthly management fee of 5% of gross receipts, as defined, from the operations of the Partnership. Management fee expense was $25,100, $60,500 and $118,700 for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively. Management fees are non-interest bearing.

F-14

ENSTAR INCOME PROGRAM IV-3, L.P.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2003, 2002 AND 2001

The Management Agreement also provides that the Partnership reimburse Enstar Cable for direct expenses incurred on behalf of the Partnership and for the Partnership’s allocable share of the Manager’s operational costs. Additionally, Charter and its affiliates provide other management and operational services for the Partnership. These expenses are charged to the properties served based primarily on the Partnership’s allocable share of operational costs associated with the services provided. The total amount charged to the Partnership for these services and direct expenses approximated $51,800, $144,000 and $237,600 for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

Substantially all programming services had been purchased through Charter. Charter charges the Partnership for these costs based on its costs. The Partnership recorded programming fee expense of $117,900, $277,200 and $537,500 for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively. Programming fees are included in service costs in the accompanying statements of operations.

As disclosed in Charter Communications, Inc.’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003, the parent of the Corporate General Partner and our Manager is the defendant in twenty-two class action and shareholder lawsuits and is the subject of a grand jury investigation being conducted by the United States Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Missouri and an SEC investigation. Charter is unable to predict the outcome of these lawsuits and government investigations. An unfavorable outcome of these matters could have a material adverse effect on Charter’s results of operations and financial condition which could in turn have a material adverse effect on the Partnership.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2003, 2002 AND 2001

1. ORGANIZATION

Enstar Cable of Macoupin County, a Georgia general partnership (the “Venture”), owned and operated cable television systems in small to medium-sized communities in Illinois.

The financial statements do not give effect to any assets that Enstar Income Program IV-1, L.P., Enstar Income Program IV-2, L.P. and Enstar Income Program IV-3, L.P. (the “Venturers” or “Partnerships”) may have outside of their interest in the Venture, nor to any obligations of the Venturers, including income taxes.

2. LIQUIDATION BASIS ACCOUNTING AND SALES OF ASSETS

On April 10, 2002, pursuant to an asset purchase agreement dated August 29, 2001, the Venturers completed the sale of the Venture’s systems to Charter Communications Entertainment I, LLC (“CCE-1”), an affiliate of the Corporate General Partner and an indirect subsidiary of Charter Communications, Inc. (“Charter”), for a total sale price of approximately $9.1 million (the “Charter Sale”). The Charter Sale is part of a larger transaction in which the Venturers and three other affiliated partnerships (which, together are collectively referred to as the “Selling Partnerships”) sold all of their assets used in the operation of their respective Illinois cable television systems to CCE-1 and two of its affiliates (also referred to, with CCE-1, as the “Purchasers”) for a total cash sale price of $63.0 million. Each Selling Partnership received the same value per customer. In addition, the Limited Partners of each of the Selling Partnerships approved an amendment to their respective partnership agreement to allow the sale of assets to an affiliate of such partnership’s General Partner. The Purchasers are each indirect subsidiaries of the Corporate General Partner’s ultimate parent company, Charter, and, therefore, are affiliates of the Venturers and each of the other Selling Partnerships.

The Charter Sale resulted from a sale process actively pursued since 1999, when the Corporate General Partner of the Venturers sought purchasers for all of the cable television systems of the Selling Partnerships, as well as eight other, affiliated limited partnership cable operators of which the Corporate General Partner is also the general partner. This effort was undertaken primarily because, based on the Corporate General Partner’s experience in the cable television industry, it was concluded that generally applicable market conditions and competitive factors were making (and would increasingly make) it extremely difficult for smaller operators of rural cable systems (such as the Venture and the other affiliated partnerships) to effectively compete and be financially successful. This determination was based on the anticipated cost of electronics and additional equipment to enable the Venture’s systems to operate on a two-way basis with improved technical capacity, insufficiency of Venture cash reserves and cash flows from operations to finance such expenditures, limited customer growth potential due to the Venture’s systems’ rural location, and a general inability of a small cable system operator such as the Venture to benefit from economies of scale and the ability to combine and integrate systems that large cable operators have. Although limited plant upgrades have been made, the Corporate General Partner projected that if the Venture made the comprehensive additional upgrades deemed necessary to enable enhanced and competitive services, particularly two-way capability, the Venture would not recoup the costs or regain its ability to operate profitably within the remaining term of its franchises, and as a result, making these upgrades would not be economically prudent.

As a result of the sale of the Venture’s systems, the Venture changed its basis of accounting to the liquidation basis on April 10, 2002. Accordingly, the assets in the accompanying statement of net assets in liquidation as of December 31, 2002 are stated at estimated realizable values and the liabilities are reflected at estimated settlement amounts. There were no significant adjustments recorded upon changing to liquidation basis accounting. Net assets in liquidation as of December 31, 2002 represent the estimated distribution to the Venturers. In January 2003, all remaining assets of the Venture were distributed including a final distribution of $126,000 made to the Venturers.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2003, 2002 AND 2001

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Liquidation Accounting

As discussed in Note 2, the financial statements as of December 31, 2002 are presented on a liquidation basis of accounting. Accordingly, the financial information in the statement of net assets in liquidation for such period is presented on a different basis of accounting than the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2001, which is prepared on the historical cost basis of accounting.

Cash Equivalents

The Venture considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. These investments are carried at cost which approximates market value.

Revenue Recognition

Cable television revenues from basic and premium services were recognized as services were provided. Advertising revenues were recognized when commercials were broadcast. Installation revenues were recognized to the extent of direct selling costs incurred. The remainder, if any, was deferred and amortized to income over the estimated average period that customers are expected to remain connected to the cable system. As of December 31, 2002 and 2001, no installation revenues have been deferred, as direct selling costs have exceeded installation revenues.

Local governmental authorities impose franchise fees on the Venture ranging up to a federally mandated maximum of 5% of gross revenues. Such fees are collected on a monthly basis from the Venture’s customers and are periodically remitted to local franchise authorities. Franchise fees collected and paid are reported as revenues and expenses.

Income Taxes

The Venture pays no federal income taxes. All of the income, gains, losses, deductions and credits of the Venture are passed through to its Venturers. The basis in the Venture’s assets and liabilities differs for financial and tax reporting purposes. As of December 31, 2002 and 2001, the book basis of the Venture’s net assets exceeds its tax basis by approximately $0 and $893,700, respectively. The accompanying financial statements, which are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, differ from the financial statements prepared for tax purposes due to the different treatment of various items as specified in the Internal Revenue Code. The net effect of these accounting differences is that net income for the year ended December 31, 2002 in the financial statements is approximately $880,100 less than tax income primarily as a result of differences between tax gain on sale of cable systems versus book gain on sale of cable systems caused principally by book and tax basis differences on the assets sold. The net effect of these accounting differences is that net income for the year ended December 31, 2001 is approximately $132,300 more than tax income for the same period caused principally by timing differences in depreciation and amortization expense.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. These estimates include useful lives of property, plant and equipment, valuation of long-lived assets and allocated operating costs. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

4. JOINT VENTURE MATTERS

The Venture was formed under the terms of a joint venture agreement effective December 30, 1987, among the Venturers, three limited partnerships sponsored by Enstar Communications Corporation (the “Corporate General

F-24

ENSTAR CABLE OF MACOUPIN COUNTY

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2003, 2002 AND 2001

Partner”). The Venture was formed to pool the resources of the three limited partnerships to acquire, own, operate, and dispose of certain cable television systems. In 1988, the Venture acquired two cable television systems in Illinois.

On September 30, 1988, Falcon Cablevision, a California limited partnership, purchased all of the outstanding capital stock of the Corporate General Partner. On September 30, 1998, Falcon Holding Group, L.P. (“FHGLP”) acquired ownership of the Corporate General Partner from Falcon Cablevision. Simultaneously with the closing of that transaction, FHGLP contributed all of its existing cable television system operations to Falcon Communications, L.P. (“FCLP”), a California limited partnership and successor to FHGLP. FHGLP served as the managing partner of FCLP, and the General Partner of FHGLP was Falcon Holding Group, Inc., a California corporation (“FHGI”). On November 12, 1999, Charter Communications Holding Company, LLC, (“Charter”), acquired the ownership of FCLP and the Corporate General Partner. The Corporate General Partner, Charter and affiliated companies are responsible for the day-to-day management of the Venture and its operations.

Under the terms of the joint venture agreement, the Venturers share equally in profits, losses, allocations, and assets. Capital contributions, as required, are also made equally.

5. PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

Depreciation expense for the period from January 1, 2002 to April 10, 2002 and the year ended December 31, 2001 was $83,500 and $214,200, respectively.

6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Venture is a party to lawsuits and claims that arose in the ordinary course of conducting its business. In the opinion of management, after consulting with legal counsel, the outcome of these lawsuits and claims will not have a material adverse effect on the Venture’s financial position or results of operations.

7. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN

The Venture participated in a cash or deferred profit sharing plan (the “Profit Sharing Plan”) sponsored by a subsidiary of the Corporate General Partner, which covers substantially all of its employees. The Profit Sharing Plan provides that each participant may elect to make a contribution in an amount up to 15% of the participant’s annual compensation which otherwise would have been payable to the participant as salary. The Venture made an employer contribution equal to 100% of the first 3% and 50% of the next 2% of the participants’ contributions. The Profit Sharing Plan was merged into the Charter Communication’s Inc. 401(k) Plan on November 1, 2002. Employees that qualified for participation could contribute up to 50% of their salary, on a pre-tax basis, subject to a maximum contribution limit as determined by the Internal Revenue Service.
