    Upon receiving notification pursuant to Sec.  76.105, a cable

held by a commercial television station licensed by the Commission, 
shall not carry that program as broadcast by any other television 
signal, except as otherwise provided below.

    Note: With respect to each syndicated program, the geographic zone 
within which the television station is entitled to enforce syndicated 
exclusivity rights shall be that geographic area agreed upon between the

station. In no event shall such zone exceed the area within which the 
television station has acquired broadcast territorial exclusivity rights 
as defined in Sec.  73.658(m) of this Chapter. To the extent rights are 
obtained for any hyphenated market named in Sec.  76.51, such rights 
shall not exceed those permitted under Sec.  73.658(m) of this Chapter 
for each named community in that market.
