ST. LOUIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 14, 2007--We have filed a registration statement on Form S-4 (including the prospectus contained therein) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for the issuance of securities to which this communication relates. Before you tender the subject securities or otherwise make any investment decision with respect to the subject securities or the securities being offered, you should read the prospectus in that registration statement and other documents we have filed with the SEC, and any amendments thereto, for more complete information about Charter Communications, Inc. and its subsidiaries. You may get these documents for free by visiting EDGAR on the SEC Web site at www.sec.gov or by contacting Charter's Investor Relations department at Charter Plaza, 12405 Powerscourt Drive, St. Louis, Missouri 63131, telephone number (314) 965-0555.

Charter Communications, Inc. (NASDAQ: CHTR) ("Charter" or the "Company") announced today that it has amended and extended the exchange offer ("Exchange Offer") by its subsidiary, Charter Communications Holding Company, LLC ("Charter Holdco") for the Company's outstanding 5.875% Convertible Senior Notes due 2009 ("Existing Convertible Notes").

Amendments include adjustments to the coupon from 7.0% to 6.5% and to the initial conversion premium from 40% to 30% for the New Convertible Notes (as defined below). Further, Charter Holdco will now accept for exchange any and all of the $413 million aggregate principal amount outstanding of Existing Convertible Notes. The Expiration Date (as defined below) and the period for the calculation of the 10-day VWAP (as defined below) have each been extended by one day.

As amended, Charter Holdco is offering up to $793 million principal amount of the Company's new 6.5% Convertible Senior Notes due 2027 ("New Convertible Notes") with an initial conversion premium of 30% to the 10-day VWAP in exchange for any and all of its $413 million aggregate principal amount of Existing Convertible Notes. The Exchange Offer is valid for Existing Convertible Notes tendered for exchange and not validly withdrawn on or prior to 11:59 pm on September 27, 2007 (the "Expiration Date"). The Exchange Offer was previously scheduled to expire at 11:59 pm on September 26, 2007. The exchange consideration for the Existing Convertible Notes will be determined based on the average of the volume-weighted daily price of Charter's Class A common stock for the ten consecutive trading days ending (and including) September 25, 2007 ("10-day VWAP") and will be in the form of New Convertible Notes.

The amount of New Convertible Notes to be issued per Existing Convertible Notes will vary based on the 10-day VWAP and will range from approximately $1,111 to $1,924 per $1,000 principal amount of Existing Convertible Notes, as set forth in the following table. If the 10-day VWAP is between two stock prices on the table, the amount of New Convertible Notes to be issued per $1,000 principal amount of Existing Convertible Notes will be determined by straight-line interpolation between the amounts set forth for the higher and lower stock prices.

New Convertible Notes will be issued only in minimum denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000. In addition to the exchange consideration, Charter Holdco will pay accrued interest on the Existing Convertible Notes from and including May 16, 2007, the last interest payment date, up to, but not including, the settlement date of the Exchange Offer.

The New Convertible Notes will have a 2027 maturity, subject to earlier redemption at the option of the Company or repurchase at the option of the holders. The New Convertible Notes provide the holders with the right to require Charter to repurchase some or all of the New Convertible Notes for cash on October 1, 2012, 2017 and 2022 at a repurchase price equal to the principal amount plus accrued interest. Additional terms of the Exchange Offer and the New Convertible Notes are provided in the amendment to the Company's Form S-4 filed today with the SEC.

The Exchange Offer is conditional upon the 10-day VWAP being between $2.00 and $4.35. The Exchange Offer is also conditioned on a minimum of $75 million of Existing Convertible Notes being tendered.

Subject to applicable securities laws and the terms set forth in the Exchange Offer, Charter Holdco reserves the right to amend the Exchange Offer in any respect.

The Exchange Offer will expire at 11:59 PM Eastern Daylight Time on September 27, 2007, unless extended or earlier terminated. An amendment to the Company's registration statement relating to the Exchange Offer is being filed today with the SEC but the registration statement will not be effective until declared effective by the SEC. The New Convertible Notes may not be issued, nor may the Exchange Offer be accepted, prior to the time the registration statement becomes effective.

Except for the modifications described above, all other terms and conditions of the offer remain materially unchanged.
