Mediacom Communications Announces
Completion of Senior Note and Term Loan Financings

Middletown, NY — August 25, 2009 — Mediacom Communications Corporation (Nasdaq: MCCC) announced today the completion of $650 million of financing for Mediacom LLC, one of its two principal operating subsidiaries. The financings consisted of $350 million of 9¹/8% Senior Notes due 2019, sold pursuant to a Rule 144A offering, and an incremental senior secured term loan facility of $300 million maturing in 2017, which was completed pursuant to an existing bank credit agreement between the operating subsidiaries of Mediacom LLC and lenders thereto. The funding date of the incremental term loan facility is September 24, 2009.

The net proceeds of the 9¹/8% Senior Notes will be used to fund, in large part, the purchase by Mediacom LLC of both its 9¹/2% Senior Notes due 2013 and 7⁷/8% Senior Notes due 2011, which are subject to ongoing tender offers. In accordance with the terms of the tender offers, Mediacom LLC has elected to accept and early purchase all notes tendered by or before 5:00 p.m. on August 24, 2009. The final expiration of the tender offers is 11:59 p.m. on September 8, 2009. All of the 9¹/2% and 7⁷/8% Senior Notes that remain outstanding after the expiration of the tender offers have been called for redemption on September 24, 2009. Proceeds from the funding of the incremental term loan facility will be used to fund, in large part, the redemption of the outstanding 9¹/2% and 7⁷/8% Senior Notes not purchased in the tender offers.

The 9¹/8% Senior Notes will not be registered under the Securities Act or any state securities and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration.
