EXHIBIT 99.1 [CHARTER COMMUNICATIONS LOGO] FOR RELEASE: 7:00 AM CT MONDAY, JULY 2, 2001 Charter Communications and AT&T Broadband Close Cable System Transactions ST. LOUIS and ENGLEWOOD, Colo., July 2, 2001 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Charter Communications, Inc., (Nasdaq:CHTR) and AT&T Broadband have closed previously announced cable-system transactions, resulting in a net addition of about 554,000 customers for Charter and $1.77 billion in cash and cable systems for AT&T, the companies said today. Charter received cable systems from AT&T serving some 563,000 customers in the St. Louis area; areas of Auburn, Birmingham, Montgomery and Selma, Ala.; and the Reno area of Nevada and California. AT&T Broadband received $1.77 billion composed of Charter cable systems serving 9,000 customers in Sebastian, Fla., valued at $24 million, and $1.75 billion in cash. Charter systems in the Miami Beach, Fla., area, originally included in the transaction, will remain with Charter. "With these transactions, Charter gains significant operational and technical efficiencies in the St. Louis metropolitan area, a top 20 ranked U.S. cable market, and in Alabama as well," said Jerry Kent, president and chief executive officer of Charter.

"These transactions are important steps in our strategic plan to create large clusters of customers in major metropolitan markets," said Dan Somers, president and chief executive officer of AT&T Broadband. "And they help us to remove more debt from our balance sheet." Daniels & Associates represented AT&T Broadband in the sales process.
