UH TV deal almost done

About how he expects the final agreement on the TV deal with KHNL/KFVE and Oceanic Time Warner Cable to be completed within the next 2 weeks, JD said:
"It's moving along, it's moving forward. Barring any unforeseen circumstance, we should be able to put a deal together." (HSB)

HSB Note: "It is believed the upcoming contract will be similar to the two previous three-year deals with UH, KFVE-TV (the 25-year rights-holder) and Oceanic Time Warner Cable (the pay-per-view supplier), or possibly a little longer. The UH legal counsel still needs to approve the final contract, Donovan said. Details of the contract are not yet available. However, an agreement with KKEA (1420-AM) for radio broadcasts has been tentatively reached and will be officially signed when the TV contract is in place. Pay-per-view decisions -- how many UH events will be in the PPV package and its pricing -- will be negotiated annually, similar to the last six years, Donovan said."
