ITEM 1.01. ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT.

On December 1, 2004, CCO Holdings, LLC and CCO Holdings Capital Corp. (together, the Issuers), direct subsidiaries of CCH II, LLC and CCH II Capital Corp., entered into a purchase agreement (the Agreement) with Credit Suisse First Boston LLC and Citigroup Global Markets, Inc. as representatives of several purchasers. In the Agreement, the Issuers agreed to issue and sell, in a private transaction under Rule 144A, $550 million in principal amount of Senior Floating Rate Notes due 2010 (the Notes). The Notes will have a six-year term and a two-year non-call and will be redeemable at the Issuers' option from December 15, 2006 until December 14, 2007 for 1.02% of the principal amount; from December 15, 2007 until December 14, 2008 for 1.01% of the principal amount and from and after December 15, 2008, at par, in each case, plus accrued and unpaid interest. The Notes will have an annual interest rate equal to The London Interbank Offer Rate (LIBOR) plus 4.125%, reset and payable quarterly.

In the Agreement, the Issuers agreed to issue the Notes with the benefit of a Registration Rights Agreement and under an Indenture, each with terms (other than those terms set forth in the preceding paragraph) substantially similar to the terms of the Issuers' existing 8.75% senior notes.

It is expected that the net proceeds from the sale of the Notes will be used to pay down debt and for general corporate purposes. Subject to the satisfaction of closing conditions, the Company anticipates that the sale will be completed on or about December 15, 2004.

A copy of the purchase agreement is being filed with this report as Exhibit 10.1.
